21.1.1.2 Additional Details

To recall in the Main details screen you have captured details regarding the deal. In the Additional Details screen you can define details like the spot price details, the settlement 22-16 currency, the settlement SKL, exchange rates for deals in a foreign currency and other such details.

For forward deals you should also indicate spot price details. The spot price details that you specify will determine the calculation of forward profit that you have made or the loss that you have incurred in a forward deal.

  1. On the Securities Deal Input screen, click Additional.

    Security Deal Input- Additional screen is displayed.

  2. On Additional, specify the details as required.

    For information on fields, see the below table:

    Table 21-5 Field Description

    Field Description

    Spot Price and Spot Date

    The spot price refers to the price at which the security is currently quoted in the market. This price is compared with the deal price to determine the forward profit or loss. The market price of the security as maintained in the price code maintenance screen is defaulted. You have an option to change the default. The forward profit or loss is the difference between the deal price and the spot price and is calculated from the spot date of the deal to its settlement date. The spot date is calculated by adding the spot days specified for the market in which the security is traded to the trade date.

    Spot date = Trade date + spot days

    The forward profit or loss would be accrued from the spot date to the settlement date of the deal. The accrual of the forward profit and loss will be done based on the accrual preferences specified for the portfolio to which the security belongs. Even if you have indicated that no accrual should be done, on the settlement of the deal the accrual will be done automatically.

    Note:

    In case of forward deals Spot Price is defaulted from the market price maintenance and the spot price cannot be changed.

    Payment Currency

    If the currency of the security is different from the settlement currency, you should indicate the currency in which payment is made. All the components of the deal like the deal amount, the charges and tax that is levied will be settled in this currency. By default the security currency is taken to be the payment currency. If you indicate the settlement currency to be different from the security currency you should also indicate the exchange rate to be used for the conversion.

    Price Details of the Deal

    The following information of the price of the deal is displayed:

    Interest Value Date

    This is the number of days for which accrued interest has been calculated. The interest value date that you specified earlier is used in the calculation. For cum-coupon deals, this is the difference between the last coupon date and the interest date. For ex-coupon deals, the interest days is the difference between the settlement date and the ex-coupon date.

    Discount

    This is the amount of rebate in the purchase or sale price of the deal, as compared to the nominal price of the security.

    Premium

    This is the price or amount paid by the buyer in addition to the nominal amount.

    Forward P & L

    The forward profit or loss is the amount of profit made or the loss incurred in the deal. It is the variance between the deal price and the spot price of the security.

    Deal Nominal

    The deal nominal refers to the net consideration of the deal. The sum of all the components of a deal is the net value of the deal.

    Adjusted Price

    This is the price of interest-bearing instruments exclusive of the interest component. Interest bearing instruments can be quoted as flat or plus accrued. The adjusted price is applicable only for flat quoted instruments. The price of such instruments tends to increase during the period nearing the interest payment date and subsequently falls after the interest payment date. The adjusted price is thus the deal price stripped of the interest component.

    Deal Type

    Select the Deal type from the drop down list. The Deal Type can be

    • Primary
    • Secondary
  3. On the Securities Deal Input screen, click Advices.

    Leg Advices screen is displayed.

  4. On Advice, specify the fields.

    To recall, the advices that can be generated for the events that occur during the life-cycle of a deal are defined for the product to which the deal is associated.

    The details of the advices applicable for an event are displayed in the Advices screen. The party type to whom a specific advice should be sent is picked up automatically based on the type of deal you are entering and the parties involved in the deal.

    Choose the event for which you want to view advice details. The address of the party who is the recipient of the message will be picked up by default, based on the media and address maintenance for the party. You can change either of them. For a payment message by SWIFT, you also have the option to change the priority of the message.

    Table 21-6 Field Description

    Field Description

    Suppressing the generation of an advice

    By default, all the advices defined for a product will be generated for the deals involving it. If any of the advices are not applicable to the deal you are processing, you can suppress its generation.

    Indicating the generation priority

    For a payment message by SWIFT, you also have the option to change the priority with which the message should be generated. By default, the priority of all advices is marked as 'Normal'. You have the option to priorities a payment message to one of the following options:

    • Normal
    • Medium
    • High

    Indicating the medium of generation

    The medium through which advice is transmitted and the corresponding address will be picked up based on the address and media maintained for the customer who is the recipient of the message.

    You can, however, change either of these while processing a deal. Typically, if changed, both of them will be changed. Click Exit to reject the entries you have made or to exit from the screen. In either case, you will be taken back to the Securities Deal Input screen.

    Levying Transaction Charges on a Deal

    For each leg of the deal, you can specify the charges that you levy. Charges are applicable only for customer legs of a deal (customer buys, the customer sells, lodge, withdraw and block securities). The characteristic feature of a charge is that it is always booked in advance and is not accrued, as a charge is collected only when it is due. To recall, you have defined the attributes of a charge by defining a ‘Rule’. A rule identifies the basic nature of the charge. You have further defined a Charge class where you have enriched the attributes of a rule. We shall refer to these classes as components'. Each charge component, in turn, is linked to a deal product. All the charge components linked to a product default to the deals associated with it. Thus each time you enter a deal, you need not specify when and how charges should be collected. However, while capturing the details of a deal, you can choose to associate a component to the deal. Further, you can modify some of the attributes defined for the applicable component.

  5. On the Securities Deal Input screen, click Charges.

If, for some reason you want to waive the charge on the deal you are processing, you can do so by checking against the 'waiver' option in the application section of the screen.
