What is Basis Risk?

Basis risk refers to the risk that arises when there is a mismatch or divergence between the price movements of a hedging instrument (such as a futures contract or derivative) and the underlying asset or liability being hedged. It occurs when the correlation between the hedging instrument and the underlying asset is not perfect, leading to potential losses or inefficiencies in hedging strategies.
