A contract described as cash settled is one where, at the end, one party pays the monetary difference in value rather than delivering the actual underlying asset. For investors this matters because it simplifies transactions (like settling a bet by paying the win amount instead of handing over a physical item), affects liquidity and timing of cash flows, and changes exposure to storage, delivery logistics and certain tax or counterparty considerations.
