Physical vs. Cash Settlement Options

It is important to understand the difference between physical and cash settled options. Physical settlement of an options contract is the most common, and involves the actual delivery of the underlying security, like shares of stock. Cash settlement occurs when cash exchanges hands at settlement instead of an underlying security or physical commodity.
