*** Note: In version 5.8 and later, the schema has been tightened to improve data quality but potentially making FpML instances based on version 5.7 or earlier forward incompatible. However, the backward incompatible changes introduced in 5.8 should not invalidate any existing, meaningful document.

Scope of Changes: In regulatory reporting views, some structures were tightened to make the schema less ambiguous, improve guidance for implementers and improve data quality. Some products have been tightened. Some key identifiers have been made non-empty (If supplied, they are not allowed to be empty anymore.)

Refer to the technical paper developed by the RPTWG for a complete list of changes. Available at http://www.fpml.org/wgroup/rptwg/FpML-RPTWG-Schema-tightening-(5-8).xlsx. Also refer to the "Changes in this Version" section of the 5.8 Specification for additional information.
