'For use when varianceCap is applicable. Contains the scaling factor of the Variance Cap that can differ on a trade-by-trade basis in the European market. For example, a Variance Cap of 2.5^2 x Variance Strike Price has an unadjustedVarianceCap of 2.5.'

'Vega Notional represents the approximate gain/loss at maturity for a 1% difference between RVol (realised vol) and KVol (strike vol). It does not necessarily represent the Vega Risk of the trade.'
