A reverse knock-in option (RKI option) that becomes in the money (ITM) once the defined barrier (for a call option, it is the barrier set above the strike) is hit and breached (where the option activates). It is a reverse down-and-in call that activates (comes into life) when the barrier is in the money with respect to the strike price.
If the barrier is not broken through (from above), the knock-in event does not take place and the option turns into a standard option (standard put).
