Actions

Examples

-----------

Bruno –checked on NPV conversion; appeared inverted; this will need to be corrected

Bruce Tupper – still waiting on NPV and commodity-specific valuation fields

Ludvig H  – has reviewed the CD examples and found an FX rate inversion and provided feedback.

Chris – reviewed examples, which look ok.  He will provide frequencies for IR swaps per request from the group.

 

Brian has provided a partial example of the values from the spreadsheet (discussed below).

 

Marc still working on example of combining  activity and event update – needed to get input from a client.  Will try to provide for next week.

 

 

Review of Example

===============

We spent a while discussing the example.

 

Points discussed included:

- naming of “measureType” – we agreed to use NPV constistently, and not to use NPVLocalCurrency, as the currency type indicates what currency it is expressed in

- naming of currency type – we agreed to leave it as “ReportCurrency”, “SettlementCurrency” etc. for now.

- Should there be a currency type for the fixed side or floating side – there wasn’t consensus.  If, say the fixed side was used to determine the domestic currency for a cross currency swap, would this need to be indicated somehow?  Leave this open for now.

- FX rate conversion – we couldn’t decide how to present this.  Brian proposed to document different options as an issue to be discussed next week.

 

Issues

=====

We briefly discussed the additions to position status that Brian proposed in the issues document.  This was well received. 

 

Brian also promised to distribute information about categorization of trades, for example into House/Customer, which he proposes to add to party Trade Information.  This is also similar to the categorization of asset hedge vs. liability hedge already there.  Sreedhar from DTCC also subsequently requested a similar feature for distinguishing between dealer and non dealer trades.  Brian promised to update the examples to be able to demonstrate this.

 

Brian mentioned that the issues document had been updated to include:

1)      recommendations on naming/usage of the “generic” product

2)      a draft schema for a reset report

We will discuss these next week.

 

Other business

============

Sreedhar Segu from DTCC requested the ability to represent counterparty  type –dealer/non dealer (discussed above).

Sreedhar was also interested in reporting aggregate numbers (e.g. total number of positions/contracts, total notional, etc.) Brian stated that this wasn’t currently in scope, but we could revisit next week if there was enough interest.

 

 

Next meeting

===========

Monday, Oct. 12 , 11 am ET -  review updated examples, currency reporting issues, trade categories, non-standard product guidelines, reset report, aggregate reporting.

 

Note:  Monday Oct. 12 is Columbus Day in the US, which affects some people.  Please let me know  by tomorrow evening if you will be unable to attend and would like me to try to reschedule.  If there is enough demand, we will try to reschedule.  Sorry not to raise this at today’s meeting.
