Manage Holdings Exclusion Rules for Swing Factors

The Holdings Exclusion Rule allows you to exclude positions for any elected processing security type, holdings in a certain currency, or a specific security from the Market Spread factor component of the Swing Factor. When calculating the total market value, the system excludes the positions identified by the rule from the summed-up value.

By default, the system always excludes cash positions from the market spread factor component. If no exclusion rule links to the fund, then the market spread factor component includes all non-cash positions.
