Is there an FpML attribute / element to denote the Clearing House (London Clearing House / Intercontinental Exchange) ?

Is there any section of the FpML that allows for free text / comments?

Is there a specific Element that indicates if a message is a cancellation? For example if a trade/swap/swapstream that we previously sent was invalid and needs to be ignored?

Hi. For XML Schema ‘fpml-ird 5-12.xsd’, complexType “Swap” do the broken lines indicate optional data (e.g. primaryAssetClass) while the unbroken lines indicate mandatory data (e.g. swapStream) ?

Hi, These tags always seem to carry the same data. Is there ever a scenario where they will different? If not, do they both have the same source information? calculationPeriodFrequency/periodMultiplier/period resetFrequency/periodMultiplier/period  

What is this Swap section used for? The business day convention and business center are already covered in; calculationPeriodDates/effectiveDate/dateAdjustments/businessDayConvention calculationPeriodDates/effectiveDate/dateAdjustments/businessCenters and; calculationPeriodDates/terminationDate/dateAdjustments/businessDayConvention calculationPeriodDates/terminationDate/dateAdjustments/businessCenters

Why is there no Option Type tag (Put / Call) for an FX Option, but I do see one for Bond Option?

Hi, Can you please advise why there is no tag for ‘settlementType’ in the complexType “FxOption”, even though it is present in complexType “BondOption”. I believe it is a standard requirement to denote if the settlement type is cash or physical. Thanks, Brian
