English translation: financial contracts concluded for the sole purpose of hedging transactions

French term or phrase: contrats financiers conclus exclusivement en couverture de marchés
I'm translating an equity report for an asset-management company from French (France) to English (United Kingdom) and am having trouble with a phrase. Please find it below in a full sentence to give you full context:

'L'investissement sera réalisé pour au minimum 85% de l'Actif Net du Fonds dans les parts [..] de l'OPCVM Maître, le reste de l'actif ne pouvant être composé que de liquidités et de contrats financiers conclus exclusivement en couverture de marchés.'

I was thinking along the lines of 'financial contracts concluded only for market hedging'. Would that be the most appropriate choice?

Many thanks!

neutral  Daryo: these are transactions directly linked to some other transactions, but not necessarily for the purpose of "hedging", especially that in this occurrence I can't see what could be "hedged"
