installation options for Qiskit and its supported environments/platforms. You should refer to

Qiskit <https://qiskit.org/documentation/getting_started.html>`__

In your virtual environment where you installed Qiskit simply add ``finance`` to the
extra list in a similar manner to how the extra ``visualization`` support is installed for
Qiskit, i.e:
In your virtual environment, where you installed Qiskit, install Qiskit Finance as follows:

.. code:: sh
pip install qiskit[finance]
pip install qiskit-finance
It is worth pointing out that if you're a zsh user (which is the default shell on newer
versions of macOS), you'll need to put ``qiskit[finance]`` in quotes:

.. code:: sh
pip install 'qiskit[finance]'
.. note::

As Qiskit Finance depends on Qiskit, you can though simply install it into your
environment, as above, and pip will automatically install a compatible version of Qiskit
if one is not already installed.
