Aktienindex-Futures / Aktienindex-Terminkontrakte

Aktienindex-Futures is a widely used used stock market term, so you don't need to translate 'futures', but you can choose to do so if you like. Take a look here to see the words/terms used in documents:

http://www.wbag.at/d/dservice/dakademie/d_s_aka_ind_fut.html

http://www.tuwien.ac.at/E330/Research/papers_uhlir.html

"Futures = Sammelbezeichnung für spezifische Terminkontrakte. Hierzu zählen Zinsterminkontrakte und Zinsfutures als Termingeschäfte auf verzinsliche Positionen, Currency Futures (Devisenterminkontrakte) und Stock Index Futures (Aktienindex-Terminkontrakte)."
