FpML-BP Re: [fpml-coord] RE: FpML-AWG Trade Execution messages




I like the use of 'corrected' rather than 'modified' but I think for consistency the initial message should have the same prefix as the corrected and retracted ones.

We also need to differentiate between messages exchanged between participants in the negotiation of a trade operation and those subsequently sent to non-participants who have an interest in the outcome. I've attached a section from the updated messaging architecture document I was working on for affirmation as an example.

In the current processed many of the final messages in the final confirmation phase of the negotiation are notifications rather than responses so that they can be distributed to others. I think this is wrong and they should just be reponses and a different message type used for the notification. This change makes the role of the receiver clearer it also means that the notifications could contain additional information, like the 'on behalf' of indicator.

It might be better if we used more explicit words than "Modified" and "Cancelled" ... taking part of Andrew's suggestion, how about the
following?

TradeExecuted
TradeExecutionCorrected
TradeExecutionRetracted

(TradeExecutedCorrected or TradeExecutedModified seems very unwieldy to me.)

I agree with Matthew that the scope implied by the names seemed rather larger than the actual scope of the messages, and that can make things misleading.

Cheers, Tony.

Matthew -


I'd considered the names you suggested, they just seemed really unwieldy to
me.  But perhaps they are better.


On the consistency with the contract messages, these are intended specifically for reporting block trade executions, so this is a different
problem.

Feedback:


This needs doing, and thanks for making a proposal.


"TradeModified" - the problem with the name of the message is that you are not modifying the trade; you are modifying the report of the trade. Why not call it "TradeExecutedModified"? The problem I have seen is people using modifications of the report to modify the trade (economic amendments), in
error.


"TradeCancelled" - this has the same problem that it does not cancel a trade, but cancels the notification of the trade. Why not call it "TradeExecutedCancelled"? The problem I have seen is people using cancels of notification to represent cancels (unwinds, counter-bookings), in error.


How does the TradeExecuted message differ from TradeAffirmed or ConfirmQuoteAccepted? All three provide notification of an execution. Why
not just have one message to notify of execution?


Why do these have two parties rather than two trade sides? Presumably this
is because this will need to wait until FpML 5.0?


To what extent is this process consistent with the Contract messages? Most usage of Trade A2A I have seen has been really messaging of Contracts
(resultant from allocations).

At today's coordination committee meeting I promised to write up the
proposal to add trade execution messages in more detail.


I've attached a write-up with diagrams, and a preliminary schema.


Note that this write up doesn't contain anything on enhancements to the pre-trade process; I'm working on another short document to discuss the
options in that area.


Regards,


Brian Lynn
