Summary
Good afternoon,
In the example "2.17 Example 9a - European Swaption, Physical Settlement, Explicit Underlying Effective Date" (see the code extract bellow), it is provided the tag <paymentType>PremiumAmount</paymentType> which do not have domain values and do not say explicitly what premium type can be nestled inside. Is it possible to nestle Swaption`s Spot or Forward premium inside?
<paymentAmount> <currency>EUR</currency> <amount>5000</amount> </paymentAmount> <paymentDate> <unadjustedDate>2018-09-19</unadjustedDate> <dateAdjustments> <businessDayConvention>MODFOLLOWING</businessDayConvention> <businessCenters> <businessCenter>EUTA</businessCenter> </businessCenters> </dateAdjustments> </paymentDate> <paymentType>PremiumAmount</paymentType> </premium> <europeanExercise> <expirationDate> <adjustableDate> <unadjustedDate id="expirationDate-64209470-695">2019-09-17</unadjustedDate> <dateAdjustments> <businessDayConvention>MODFOLLOWING</businessDayConvention> <businessCenters>
Thank you in advance. Hope for asap answer.
Best regards,
Maksym

XAPWG:
It appears swaption/premium uses the Payment type, which has a PaymentType which is implicitly a PremiumAmount anyway;
rather than Premium type containing Premium.model group which includes the PremiumType:PremiumTypeEnum
which could indicate whether it is PrePaid or PostPaid which may correspond to requestor’s Spot or Forward terms.
If there is a need to express this, the easiest option would be to add the PremiumType:PremiumTypeEnum
to the swaption/premium.

MAZA: it seems to me that it would be correct to have such an element within the schema that would contain information about what type of premium for the swaption (forward or spot).
XAPWG: What’s the use case ?
The group wondered if the classification might be needed for a pricing model.
If not, you could just use the specified dates directly, rather than a classification.
