Option writer
The party that, after concluding the initial sale of an option contract and as long as the option remains outstanding, is obligated to carry out the agreed transaction if the option holder decides to exercise the option.
The term option issuer may be confusing in that the term issuer is also used to designate the clearing house that issues the exchange-traded option.
