    We are quite new to FpML as a standard and have a few queries. 1. Which is the widely accepted FpML version out there used by exchanges and big banks ? The latest seems to be 5.2 2. If I take the latest version (5.2) and write my parsers to 5.2 version XSD’s would an older FpML message say from 4.x series will parse successfully ? If there are not any mandatory elements added in newer versions, I believe this is possible ? Appreciate your comments on above. Thanks!

    Hello, 1. If you are new to FpML, it is good to start with the latest version 5.3, it covers more business processes compared to 5.2 (e.g. SDRs reporting). To learn more about the versions, visit Current FpML Specifications page – http://www.fpml.org/spec/latest.php 2. On compatibility, please read this repose: http://www.fpml.org/dev/modules/newbbex/viewtopic.php?viewmode=thread&topic_id=177&forum=4&post_id=408#408 You can read more on the compatibility on the FpML Version 5.0 forum. Regards, Irina Yermakova
