    Basis risk for the future contract is 0.65%

    Explanation:

    Basis risk is the difference in spot price and future price of an hedged asset. It is the difference between the price price of an hedged asset and price of the asset serving as the hedge.

    Basis risk = Futures price of contract - Spot price of hedged asset

    Basis Risk = Future IMM index - Spot IMM index

    Basis risk = 95.75% - 95.10%

    Basis risk = 0.65%
