In the Multiple Leg Swap panel, you can manually add and change an interest rate swap. An interest rate swap is a deal between banks or companies in which borrowers exchange floating debt for fixed rate debt.

Interest rate swaps have three security master records. One security master record represents the contract leg. The other two security master records represent the pay leg and the receive leg. The contract provides general information about the deal. The pay and receive legs provide specific payment details. The legs are linked together by a shared Primary Asset ID. The holder of the swap pays a fixed, variable, or floating rate based on an underlying index, and receives a different amount based on a fixed, variable, or floating rate. The pay and receive coupons are based on specific accrual terms.

You can set up each leg with different interest rates, payment frequencies, day count bases, and business calendar information. The system processes each leg as an individual position so that you can view the holdings and accruals separately. Pricing is processed at the contract level only.

To set up an interest rate swap, you must configure your Eagle environment to allow duplicate Primary Asset IDs. See the /wiki/spaces/PS/pages/43029753 page for more information.

Fixing Date Business Center16407

Specifies the fixing date business calendar for the security. The Earnings process uses this business calendar you select to identify business days and non business days for the purposes of determining the fixing date for floating rate and inverse floating rate coupon date. The fixing date is the date on which a rate/price is selected for use on the reset date. 

If you do not select a value, the Earnings process uses the business calendar selected in the Business Calendar Name field (tag 1480) to determine the fixing date. This option allows you to specify separate calendars when a security uses one calendar for dropping coupons and a different calendar for resetting the floating rate. This field appears only if the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) has a value of X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).

Principal Currency

11813

Specifies the currency in which the security pays principal for a dual currency instrument. This field displays the asset currency by default, but you can change it if you identify the security as a dual currency instrument. The principal currency matches either the asset currency or the income currency, allowing you to apply a single set of fixing parameters to the dual currency instrument. When the principal currency differs from the asset currency for a dual currency instrument, the security calculates principal in the asset currency but converts the local currency amounts to the principal currency at the time the maturity or corporate action is created. It bases the amount on the fixing parameters specified for the dual currency instrument. This field appears if the Dual Currency Indicator field has a value of Yes.

Settlement Rate Option

  • B (Business). The fixing period uses business days when determining which date to select. The FX Fixing Business Center field identifies the business calendar to use for the security's fixing period.
  • C (Calendar). The fixing period uses all calendar days when determining which date to select. This field displays a value of C if you set the FX Fixing Period to Month, Week, or Year.

FX Fixing Business Day Convention

12029

Determines how to adjust the calendar date for the FX fixing date if the date would otherwise fall on a day that is not a business day based on the fixing day's calendar. This field appears if the Dual Currency Indicator field has a value of Yes. Options include:
