InterestCalculation

A choice of the interest rate type.

floatingRateCalculation(FloatingRateCalculation)

	The floating rate calculation definitions.

floatingRateIndex(FloatingRateIndex)

	Defines floating rate index.
	Float rate code.

indexTenor(Period)

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

periodMultiplier(integer)

	A time period multiplier, e.g. 1, 2 or 3 etc. A negative value can be used when specifying an offset relative to another date, e.g. -2 days.

period(PeriodEnum)

	A time period, e.g. a day, week, month or year of the stream. If the periodMultiplier value is 0 (zero) then period must contain the value D (day).
	D;W;M;Y;

floatingRateMultiplierSchedule(Schedule)

A rate multiplier or multiplier schedule to apply to the floating rate. A multiplier schedule is expressed as explicit multipliers and dates. In the case of a schedule, the step dates may be subject to adjustment in accordance with any adjustments specified in the calculationPeriodDatesAdjustments. The multiplier can be a positive or negative decimal. This element should only be included if the multiplier is not equal to 1 (one) for the term of the stream.

initialValue(decimal)

	The initial rate or amount, as the case may be. An initial rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

step(Step)

	The schedule of step date and value pairs. On each step date the associated step value becomes effective. A list of steps may be ordered in the document by ascending step date. An FpML document containing an unordered list of steps is still regarded as a conformant document.

stepDate(date)

	The date on which the associated stepValue becomes effective. This day may be subject to adjustment in accordance with a business day convention.

stepValue(decimal)

	The rate or amount which becomes effective on the associated stepDate. A rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

spreadSchedule(SpreadSchedule)

The ISDA Spread or a Spread schedule expressed as explicit spreads and dates. In the case of a schedule, the step dates may be subject to adjustment in accordance with any adjustments specified in calculationPeriodDatesAdjustments. The spread is a per annum rate, expressed as a decimal. For purposes of determining a calculation period amount, if positive the spread will be added to the floating rate and if negative the spread will be subtracted from the floating rate. A positive 10 basis point (0.1%) spread would be represented as 0.001.

initialValue(decimal)

	The initial rate or amount, as the case may be. An initial rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

step(Step)

	The schedule of step date and value pairs. On each step date the associated step value becomes effective. A list of steps may be ordered in the document by ascending step date. An FpML document containing an unordered list of steps is still regarded as a conformant document.

stepDate(date)

	The date on which the associated stepValue becomes effective. This day may be subject to adjustment in accordance with a business day convention.

stepValue(decimal)

	The rate or amount which becomes effective on the associated stepDate. A rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

capRateSchedule(StrikeSchedule)

	The cap rate or cap rate schedule, if any, which applies to the floating rate. The cap rate (strike) is only required where the floating rate on a swap stream is capped at a certain strike level. A cap rate schedule is expressed as explicit cap rates and dates and the step dates may be subject to adjustment in accordance with any adjustments specified in calculationPeriodDatesAdjustments. The cap rate is assumed to be exclusive of any spread and is a per annum rate, expressed as a decimal. A cap rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.
	Cap rate.

initialValue(decimal)

	The initial rate or amount, as the case may be. An initial rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

step(Step)

	The schedule of step date and value pairs. On each step date the associated step value becomes effective. A list of steps may be ordered in the document by ascending step date. An FpML document containing an unordered list of steps is still regarded as a conformant document.

stepDate(date)

	The date on which the associated stepValue becomes effective. This day may be subject to adjustment in accordance with a business day convention.

stepValue(decimal)

	The rate or amount which becomes effective on the associated stepDate. A rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

floorRateSchedule(StrikeSchedule)

	The floor rate or floor rate schedule, if any, which applies to the floating rate. The floor rate (strike) is only required where the floating rate on a swap stream is floored at a certain strike level. A floor rate schedule is expressed as explicit floor rates and dates and the step dates may be subject to adjustment in accordance with any adjustments specified in calculationPeriodDatesAdjustments. The floor rate is assumed to be exclusive of any spread and is a per annum rate, expressed as a decimal. A floor rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.
	Floor rate.

initialValue(decimal)

	The initial rate or amount, as the case may be. An initial rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

step(Step)

	The schedule of step date and value pairs. On each step date the associated step value becomes effective. A list of steps may be ordered in the document by ascending step date. An FpML document containing an unordered list of steps is still regarded as a conformant document.

stepDate(date)

	The date on which the associated stepValue becomes effective. This day may be subject to adjustment in accordance with a business day convention.

stepValue(decimal)

	The rate or amount which becomes effective on the associated stepDate. A rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

initialRate(decimal)

The initial floating rate reset agreed between the principal parties involved in the trade. This is assumed to be the first required reset rate for the first regular calculation period. It should only be included when the rate is not equal to the rate published on the source implied by the floating rate index. An initial rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

fixedRate(decimal)

	The calculation period fixed rate. A per annum rate, expressed as a decimal. A fixed rate of 5% would be represented as 0.05.

dayCountFraction(DayCountFraction)

	Defines the day count fraction.
