  Both basic and value-added catalogs include all other FpML coding-schemes as well, so that all coding schemes can be downloaded in one place.​   The basic FpML Set of Coding Schemes version 2-7 can be found on the FpML website in the Specifications section at: https://www.fpml.org/spec/coding-scheme/index.html   The value-added coding schemes include more comprehensive metadata and are available and distributed through the ISDA Bookstore [https://www.isda.org/book/enhanced-fpml-coding-scheme-catalog]. The catalog in a form of download (ZIP file) is available for purchase.​     There is an introductory offer for the first year, renewed on an annual subscription basis.     ISDA introduces the new coding-scheme format, which includes metadata. The following key coding-schemes (listed below), that are used to support 2021 ISDA Definitions, include metadata fields which provide additional information about each code in the scheme. ISDA plans to expand the metadata feature to some other coding schemes in the catalog. ​

  • The unique 4-character string/code of the real geographical business calendar location or FpML format of the rate publication calendar. This is both basic and value-added coding scheme.
