Closed
30 September 2021

330. Counterparties should report only those fields related to data elements of regular payments that are applicable to a given derivative. Therefore, taking into consideration the contract type, the report will contain information on dedicated fields specific for each fixed or floating leg of a derivative. The same rule applies to the data elements describing the reset frequency and reference period of the floating rates.

331. For each leg of aderivative with periodic payments, the fixed rate has to be reported, where applicable,by specifying positive or negative values expressed as percentages.(e.g. 2.57 instead of 2.57%)

332. In the case of floating legs, the periodic payments are calculated based on an underlying reference rate on predefined dates. Floating rates could be identified with an ISIN and/or with a 4-letter standardized code, explicitly included in the draft ITS.

333. Furthermore, the floating rates should be identified by using the official name of the rate as assgined by the index provider.

Q54. Are there any additional clarifications to be considered related to reporting of regular payments?
