Summary

A model group (FloatingRateIndex.model) would keep consistency between types using the floatingRateIndex and the indexTenor elements (floatingRateCalculation, Fra,...) and it would facilitate extensions.

Notes:

    Note however the content model of these 2 elements is deliberately different in different contexts. So within floatingRateCalculation indexTenor is optional. Within fra it is mandatory and can occur 1 or 2 times.

    Thanks, Guy. The use case I have is more related to be able to reuse the construct of floatingRateCalculation for people extending the rateCalculation component to model structured products. It won’t be used in the fra.

    A FloatingRateIndex.model has been created:






    The ISDA Designated Maturity, i.e. the tenor of the floating rate.



    FloatingRate references this new group.
