%X Financial derivatives, as products of advanced financial engineering, have witnessed exponential growth in parallel with China’s economic expansion and the rising affluence of its populace. This burgeoning market, while offering sophisticated tools for risk management and investment diversification, has also encountered nascent challenges that warrant rigorous scrutiny and innovative approaches to regulation and oversight. The burgeoning complexity and volume of derivatives transactions necessitate enhanced analytical models to predict and mitigate systemic risks effectively. In this context, the present study seeks to dissect the nuanced impacts of financial derivatives on the risk landscape of China’s financial markets. It underscores the dual imperative of leveraging financial innovation for market advancement while fortifying the financial architecture against potential shocks. Utilizing the VaR-GARCH model to dissect the performance of the CSI 300 stock index amid the volatility of recent years (2021-2022), this paper endeavors to elucidate the efficacy of financial derivatives in risk modulation. It also prognosticates future risk trajectories, aiming to contribute to the discourse on fostering a resilient and progressive financial ecosystem in China. Through this analysis, this article aims to construct a mosaic of insights that bolster the strategic deployment of financial derivatives, ensuring they serve as bulwarks of stability rather than conduits of instability, thereby safeguarding and propelling the sustainable growth of China’s financial markets.
