7.7.1 Non-Currency-Based versus Currency-Based Processing

Users may select one of four functional dimensions in their Asset Liability Management (ALM) Deterministic Process. These dimensions describe the way the output is aggregated and the selection impacts the approach to the translation of multicurrency data. In this chapter, we refer to the processing as being either non-currency-based or currency-based, depending on which functional dimension is selected:
