Book Close Trades for Credit Index Swaps

The system handles both full and partial terminations for credit default index swaps. Early termination occurs when you end the swap agreement prior to the status maturity date. Either party in the swap can terminate early. By default, the legs continue to accrue through the settlement date - 1.
