An average rate option in which the weighting of a given periodical price or rate (daily, weekly, monthly, ..) is defined and agreed by the parties in their agreement. This option allows investors who are not certain of the price/rate to capitalize, instead, on their knowledge of the timing and size of cash flows.

It is also known as a weighted average price option, or for short as WARO.
