MT 502 Usage Rules


When an instruction is sent to a party other than the original Receiver, this original Receiver is identified in the other
parties sequence as :95a::MERE (Recipient of the Message).
In cross-border, broker-to-broker trades, the place of settlement (:95a::PSET), must be present.
When a broker is identified as a confirming party, the party capacity (:22F::TRCA) must be specified.
When there is a need to pre-allocate, a master reference must be used in the linkage sequence of the MT 502. The MT
514 Trade Allocation Instruction, is used to instruct the pre-allocation. The master reference must be used in the
linkage sequence of all the associated MT 514s.
Field 22F Indicator, with the qualifier PRCO, ie, Pre-Allocation Condition, should be used to indicate how to allocate
if the block cannot be fully executed, and to convey rounding instructions in case of fractional shares.
Optional sequence C Settlement Details may be used to convey early information regarding settlement.
The Receiver of a request to cancel or replace must advise the requesting party that the request has been accepted or
denied in an MT 509 Trade Status Message.

recall the collateral upon the termination of an underlying exposure.

This message is also used by the taker or the giver to request the cancellation of a previously sent collateral claim.

This message must not be used to initiate a substitution of collateral.

The message may also be used to:

re-send a message previously sent (Subfunction of the message is DUPL)


provide a third party with a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is COPY)
re-send to a third party a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is CODU).

MT 503 Format Specifications


The user header of the message (block 3) is mandatory and must contain a code in the Validation Flag field 119 (
{3:{119:xxxx}} ) to identify the exposure type or collateral reason.

These codes may be used for routing purposes.

The collateral claim consists of three sequences.

Sequence A General Information provides general information about the message and the collateral transaction, ie, the func-
tion of the message, the identification of the collateral transaction, the references of the linked messages, the identification
of the underlying agreement(s), the identification of the parties, the reason for which collateral is needed (the exposure
type), the identification of the collateral action and the contact information.

Sequence B Summary provides information related to the collateral position, ie, the identification of the exposed party, the
total exposure amount, the total collateral amount held by the taker, the value of collateral to be added to or to be returned
from the collateral held. The sequence contains an optional subsequence with the amounts taken into account to calculate
the collateral position. These amounts are required for certain types of exposures. The subsequence also contains the valua-
tion dates and the requested settlement date of the collateral.

Optional sequence C specifies the details of the collateral claimed. It is used by the taker only if the taker wants to receive
specific collateral. It is used by the giver to specify the collateral it wants to pull out of the collateral held by the taker. The
collateral can be securities, cash, documentary credits or bank guarantees.

MT 503 Usage Rules


The exchange of information related to the trade itself as well as to the settlement of the collateral is done with the existing
confirmation and settlement messages of the relevant categories (categories 2, 3, 5, 7, 9).

Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003 215


MT 503 SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1

MT 503 Guidelines
When the total exposure covers several exposures in different currencies, the currency of sequence B is usually the reporting
currency. When the total exposure covers one or more exposures in the same currency, either this currency or the reporting
currency is used in sequence B.

The code identifying the exposure type or collateral reason in the user header of the message (block 3) must be identical to
the code contained in field :22H::COLA//xxxx (Exposure Type Indicator) in sequence A of the message content (text
block 4).

The collateral management process is initiated every time a new exposure is created, ie, when a new trade relationship is
established. Also, membership of a clearing system usually requires the posting of collateral before clearing can start. This
provides a guarantee that the member will honour its obligations.

The type of institutions involved in collateral management and who can send and/or receive collateral messages are:

clearing, netting, RTGS systems


central banks
institutional investors
fund managers
custodians
local authorities
corporates
banks
third party service providers
exchanges

Collateral can be claimed for the following reasons or products:

payments/settlements
credit lines
FX and derivatives trading
repo trading
securities lending and borrowing
cross-product, ie, combining collateral needs issued from different types of trades.

The types of collateral that can be proposed are:

securities
cash
letters of credit and bank guarantees (only for bilateral collateral management)

A collateral claim can be sent:

At initiation time, when the initiative is taken by the taker, a collateral claim is sent asking the giver to post collateral.
The claim provides the exposure amount and the value of collateral required. The taker can also include the details of
the collateral he wants.
When a new exposure is created by a variation in the value of the exposure, in the value of the collateral or in both
values.
The taker will send a claim for additional collateral to be posted by the giver when his exposure vis-à-vis the giver
increases, either because of additional exposure, increase of value of the existing exposure, decrease of value of
the posted, or several of these occur.
The giver will send a collateral claim to the taker containing the details of the collateral to be returned, when the
exposure from the taker vis-à-vis the giver decreases, either because of diminished exposure, decrease of value of
the existing exposure, increase of value of the posted exposure or several of these occur.
When the exposure changes sides, ie, the ’former taker’ is no longer exposed to the ’former giver’ but the roles are
reversed so that the ’former taker’ becomes the new giver and the ’former giver’ becomes the new taker. The
(new) taker will send a claim for the return of his collateral. The same message will contain the details of the call
for new collateral.

216 Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003


SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1 MT 503

At termination time, when the exposure between the parties has disappeared completely. This happens for instance
when a trade has reached maturity or when parties have decided to stop trading altogether or when an institution pulls
out of a clearing system. The giver will send a message claiming all posted collateral.

Industry Requirements

ISDA Definitions
Credit Support Amount

Unless modified by the parties, the Credit Support Amount is generally the amount of Eligible Credit Support that the
Secured Party is entitled to hold as of a particular Valuation Date.

The Credit Support Amount is usually defined as:

the Secured Party’s Exposure; plus


the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor, if any; minus
the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Secured Party, if any, minus
the Pledgor’s Unsecured Threshold.

The Credit Support Amount, however, is deemed to be zero whenever its calculation would yield a number less than zero.

Independent Amount

An Independent Amount is an amount that may be used as an add-on to Exposure which can reflect, among other things, the
volatility of a particular Transaction or credit concerns relating to one or both counterparties.

When an Independent Amount is applicable to a party, it increases the Credit Support Amount that is applicable when the
other party is the Secured Party and decreases the Credit Support Amount that is applicable when that party is the Secured
Party.

However, some parties may wish to modify the Credit Support Amount formula specified above to eliminate the subtraction
of Independent Amounts applicable to the Secured Party. In this case, the Independent Amount represents the minimum
Credit Support Amount when that party is a Credit Support Taker.

For example, Credit Support Amount may be defined as:

the Secured Party’s Exposure; plus


the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor, if any, minus
the Pledgor’s Unsecured Threshold.

Provided that in the case where the sum of the Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor exceeds zero, the Credit
Support Amount will not be less than the sum of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor. In all other cases, the
Credit Support Amount will be deemed to be zero whenever the calculation of Credit Support Amount yields an amount less
than zero.

Hence, in the Collateral Messages, Independent Amounts should default to be treated as nettable unless being explicitly
stated as being non-netted.

Basic Amount

The Basic Amount with respect to any one party represents the minimum value of Posted Credit Support required at all
times from a counterparty independently of any exposure.

Basic Amounts are not subject to any form of netting with Delivery or Return Amounts.

Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003 217


MT 503 SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1

Thresholds

The Threshold generally represents the amount of unsecured risk (measured by the Secured Party’s Exposure and the aggre-
gate of any Independent Amounts due, if any) that a party is willing to tolerate without holding any Posted Credit Support
provided by the other party.

Generally, under the standard definition of Credit Support Amount, the unsecured threshold is deducted from the current
exposure in order to arrive at the Credit Support Amount required for a particular Valuation Date.

Alternatively, given the flexibility provided under ISDA documentation, the parties can agree to vary the Credit Support
Amount definition so that when the exposure is greater than the threshold, the Credit Support Amount is calculated without
any deduction of the unsecured Threshold, ie, Credit Support Amount = the entire Secured Party’s exposure.

Such a threshold arrangement is commonly referred to by the market as a SECURED Threshold since, once breached, the
whole exposure is effectively offset by Posted Credit Support.

EXAMPLE - reporting currency is USD

Total Exposure Amount 25,000,090 USD

Adjusted Exposure Amount (based on bilateral agree- 25,000,090 USD


ments)

Netted Independent Amount 1,000,000 USD

Unsecured Threshold Amount 2,000,000 USD

Subtotal 24,000,090 USD

Basic Amount 0

Credit Support Amount 24,000,090 USD

Value of Collateral Held 15,384,615 USD

Delivery Amount 8,615,475 USD

(Minimum Transfer Amount) (5,000,000)

(Rounding Integer Amount ) (250,000)

COLLATERAL CALL AMOUNT 8,750,000 USD

The items stated in italics are not present on the message as they can be deducted from the other amounts.

MT 504 Collateral Proposal


Note: The use of this message type requires Message User Group (MUG) registration.

MT 504 Scope
This message is sent by the collateral giver or its collateral manager to the collateral taker or its collateral manager to:

propose new collateral at the initiation of an exposure


propose additional collateral at variation of exposure

This message may or may not be sent as an answer to a collateral claim.

This message is also used by the giver to request the cancellation of a previously sent collateral proposal.

This message must not be used to initiate a substitution.

The message may also be used to:

re-send a message previously sent (Subfunction of the message is DUPL)


provide a third party with a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is COPY)
re-send to a third party a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is CODU).

MT 504 Format Specifications


The user header of the message (block 3) is mandatory and must contain a code in the Validation Flag field 119 (
{3:{119:xxxx}} ) to identify the exposure type or collateral reason.

These codes may be used for routing purposes.

The collateral proposal consists of five sequences.

Sequence A General Information provides general information about the message and the collateral transaction, ie, the func-
tion of the message, the identification of the collateral transaction, the references of the linked messages, the identification
of the underlying agreement(s), the identification of the parties, the reason for which collateral is needed (the exposure
type), the identification of the collateral action and the contact information.

Sequence B Summary provides information related to the collateral position, ie, the identification of the exposed party, the
total exposure amount, the total collateral amount held by the taker, the value of collateral to be added to or to be returned
from the collateral held. The sequence contains an optional subsequence with the amounts taken into account to calculate
the collateral position. These amounts are required for certain types of exposures. This subsequence also contains the valua-
tion dates and the requested settlement date of the collateral.

Sequence C specifies the details of the proposed collateral. The collateral can be securities, cash or other collateral. Other
collateral indicates trade instruments, ie, documentary credits and bank guarantees. This sequence may also contain the
settlement details for a piece of security or cash collateral. If the settlement details for all pieces of proposed securities
collateral are the same, these details are not present in this sequence, but included once in sequence D. If the settlement
details for all pieces of proposed cash collateral are the same, these details are not present in this sequence, but included
once in sequence E.

Sequence D contains the common securities settlement details, ie, the settlement details of the proposed securities when
they are not included in sequence C at the level of the individual piece of collateral.

Sequence E contains the common cash settlement details, ie, the settlement details of the proposed cash when they are not
included in sequence C at the level of the individual piece of collateral.

MT 504 Usage Rules


The exchange of information related to the trade itself as well as to the settlement of the collateral is done with the existing
confirmation and settlement messages of the relevant categories (categories 2, 3, 5, 7, 9).

MT 504 Guidelines
When the total exposure covers several exposures in different currencies, the currency of sequence B is usually the reporting
currency. When the total exposure covers one or more exposures in the same currency, either this currency or the reporting
currency is used in sequence B.

The code identifying the exposure type or collateral reason in the user header of the message (block 3) must be identical to
the code contained in field :22H::COLA//xxxx (Exposure Type Indicator) in sequence A of the message content (text
block 4). These codes may be used for routing purposes.

The collateral management process is initiated every time a new exposure is created, ie, when a new trade relationship is
established. Also, membership of a clearing system usually requires the posting of collateral before clearing can start. This
provides a guarantee that the member will honour its obligations.

The type of institutions involved in collateral management and who can send and/or receive collateral messages are:

clearing, netting, RTGS systems


central banks
institutional investors
fund managers
custodians
local authorities
corporates
banks
third party service providers
exchanges

268 Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003


SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1 MT 504

Collateral can be proposed for the following reasons or products:

payments/settlements
credit lines
FX and derivatives trading
repo trading
securities lending and borrowing
cross-product, ie, combining collateral needs issued from different types of trades

The types of collateral that can be proposed included in this message are:

securities
cash
letters of credit and bank guarantees (only for bilateral collateral management)

A collateral proposal can be sent:

At initiation time, when the initiative is taken by the giver, a collateral proposal is sent to the taker containing the
details of the proposed collateral together with the exposure amount and the value of collateral required.

When the initiative is taken by the taker, the giver may answer to his claim with a collateral proposal.

When a new exposure is created by a variation in the value of the exposure, in the value of the collateral or in both
values.

The taker will send a claim for additional collateral to be posted by the giver when his exposure vis-à-vis the giver
increases, either because of additional exposure, increase of value of the existing exposure, decrease of value of the
posted, or several of these occur.

The giver may answer to his claim with a collateral proposal.

Industry Requirements

ISDA Definitions
Credit Support Amount

Unless modified by the parties, the Credit Support Amount is generally the amount of Eligible Credit Support that the
Secured Party is entitled to hold as of a particular Valuation Date.

The Credit Support Amount is usually defined as:

the Secured Party’s Exposure; plus


the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor, if any; minus
the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Secured Party, if any, minus
the Pledgor’s Unsecured Threshold.

The Credit Support Amount, however, is deemed to be zero whenever its calculation would yield a number less than zero.

Independent Amount

An Independent Amount is an amount that may be used as an add-on to Exposure which can reflect, among other things, the
volatility of a particular Transaction or credit concerns relating to one or both counterparties.

When an Independent Amount is applicable to a party, it increases the Credit Support Amount that is applicable when the
other party is the Secured Party and decreases the Credit Support Amount that is applicable when that party is the Secured
Party.

Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003 269


MT 504 SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1

However, some parties may wish to modify the Credit Support Amount formula specified above to eliminate the subtraction
of Independent Amounts applicable to the Secured Party. In this case, the Independent Amount represents the minimum
Credit Support Amount when that party is a Credit Support Taker.

For example, Credit Support Amount may be defined as:

the Secured Party’s Exposure; plus


the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor, if any, minus
the Pledgor’s Unsecured Threshold.

Provided that in the case where the sum of the Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor exceeds zero, the Credit
Support Amount will not be less than the sum of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor. In all other cases, the
Credit Support Amount will be deemed to be zero whenever the calculation of Credit Support Amount yields an amount less
than zero.

Hence, in the Collateral Messages, Independent Amounts should default to be treated as nettable unless being explicitly
stated as being non-netted.

Basic Amount

The Basic Amount with respect to any one party represents the minimum value of Posted Credit Support required at all
times from a counterparty independently of any exposure.

Basic Amounts are not subject to any form of netting with Delivery or Return Amounts.

Thresholds

The Threshold generally represents the amount of unsecured risk (measured by the Secured Party’s Exposure and the aggre-
gate of any Independent Amounts due, if any) that a party is willing to tolerate without holding any Posted Credit Support
provided by the other party.

Generally, under the standard definition of Credit Support Amount, the unsecured threshold is deducted from the current
exposure in order to arrive at the Credit Support Amount required for a particular Valuation Date.

Alternatively, given the flexibility provided under ISDA documentation, the parties can agree to vary the Credit Support
Amount definition so that when the exposure is greater than the threshold, the Credit Support Amount is calculated without
any deduction of the unsecured Threshold, ie, Credit Support Amount = the entire Secured Party’s exposure.

Such a threshold arrangement is commonly referred to by the market as a SECURED Threshold since, once breached, the
whole exposure is effectively offset by Posted Credit Support.

EXAMPLE - reporting currency is USD

Total Exposure Amount 25,000,090 USD

Adjusted Exposure Amount (based on bilateral agree- 25,000,090 USD

Netted Independent Amount 1,000,000 USD

MT 505 Scope
This message is sent by the collateral giver or its collateral manager to the collateral taker or its collateral manager to
propose the substitution of collateral held.

This message is also sent by the collateral taker or its collateral manager to the collateral giver or its collateral manager to
request the substitution of collateral held.

This message is also used by the giver or taker to request the cancellation of a previously sent collateral substitution.

The message may also be used to:

re-send a message previously sent (Subfunction of the message is DUPL)


provide a third party with a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is COPY)
re-send to a third party a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is CODU).

MT 505 Format Specifications


The user header of the message (block 3) is mandatory and must contain a code in the Validation Flag field 119 (
{3:{119:xxxx}} ) to identify the exposure type or collateral reason.

These codes may be used for routing purposes.

The substitution consists of four sequences.

Sequence A General Information provides general information about the message and the collateral transaction, ie, the func-
tion of the message, the identification of the collateral transaction, the references of the linked messages, the identification
of the underlying agreement(s), the identification of the parties, the reason for which collateral is needed, the exposure type
and the contact information.

Sequence B specifies the details of both the collateral to be substituted and the new collateral. The collateral can be securi-
ties, cash or other collateral. The other collateral indicates trade instruments, ie, documentary credits and bank guarantees.
This sequence may also contain the settlement details for a piece of security or cash collateral. If the settlement details for
all pieces of securities collateral are the same, these details are not present in this sequence, but included once in sequence
C. If the settlement details for all pieces of cash collateral are the same, these details are not present in this sequence, but
included once in sequence D.

Sequence C contains the common securities settlement details, ie the settlement details of the proposed securities when they
are not included in sequence B at the level of the individual piece of collateral.

Sequence D contains the common cash settlement details, ie the settlement details of the proposed cash when they are not
included in sequence B at the level of the individual piece of collateral.

MT 505 Usage Rules


The substitution of collateral can be done with one message: a substitution message contains both the collateral to be
taken out from the collateral held and the proposed new collateral.
The substitution can also be done in two steps: a first message is sent with only the details of the collateral to be pulled
out and a second message is sent afterwards with the proposed new collateral. This is done when the giver wants to
substitute collateral but doesn’t know what collateral he will use at the moment of sending the first message.
When the taker requests the substitution, he will usually send a message containing only the collateral to be pulled out.
The giver will then send a substitution message with the proposed new collateral.
The exchange of information related to the trade itself as well as to the settlement of the collateral is done with the
existing confirmation and settlement messages of the relevant categories (categories 2, 3, 5, 7, 9).

MT 505 Guidelines
The code identifying the exposure type or collateral reason in the user header of the message (block 3) must be identical to
the code contained in field :22H::COLA//xxxx (Exposure Type Indicator) in sequence A of the message content (text
block 4).

A collateral substitution can be sent:

by the taker to request the substitution of collateral held, the giver will then send a response confirming its agreement
or disagreement
by the giver to propose the substitution of collateral held, the taker will then send a response confirming its agreement
or disagreement.

Note: The use of this message type requires Message User Group (MUG) registration.

MT 506 Scope
This message is sent either by the collateral giver, or its collateral manager, to the collateral taker, or its collateral manager,
or by the collateral taker, or its collateral manager to the collateral giver, or its collateral manager.

It is used to provide the details of the valuation of both the collateral and the exposure.

This message is also used by the taker or the giver to request the cancellation of a previously sent collateral and exposure
statement.

This message must not be used to claim collateral but may be used in support of a claim.

The message may also be used to:

re-send a message previously sent (Subfunction of the message is DUPL)


provide a third party with a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is COPY)
re-send to a third party a copy of the message for information (Subfunction of the message is CODU).

MT 506 Format Specifications


The user header of the message (block 3) is mandatory and must contain a code in the Validation Flag field 119 (
{3:{119:xxxx}} ) to identify the exposure type or collateral reason.

These codes may be used for routing purposes.

The statement consists of four sequences.

Sequence A General Information provides general information about the message and the collateral transaction, ie, the func-
tion of the message, the identification of the collateral transaction, the references of the linked messages, the identification
of the underlying agreement(s), the identification of the parties, the reason for which collateral is needed, the exposure type
and the contact information.

Sequence B Summary provides information related to the collateral position, ie, the identification of the exposed party, the
total exposure amount and the total collateral amount held by the taker. It also contains the valuation dates and the requested
settlement date of collateral if there is a shortage of collateral. The sequence contains an optional subsequence with the
amounts taken in to account to calculate the collateral position. These amounts are required for certain types of exposures.

Repetitive sequence C Exposure Valuation Details contains the valuation details of the exposure. The identification and the
value of the trades and the other elements that constitute the total exposure are included one by one.

Repetitive sequence D Collateral Valuation Details contains the valuation details of the collateral held by the taker. The

MT 506 Usage Rules


The exchange of information related to the trade itself as well as to the settlement of the collateral is done with the existing
confirmation and settlement messages of the relevant categories (categories 2, 3, 5, 7, 9).

MT 506 Guidelines
A collateral and exposure statement can be sent:

by the taker to provide the details of the valuation of both the collateral and the exposure
by the giver to provide the details of the valuation of both the collateral and the exposure.

Industry Requirements

ISDA Definitions
Credit Support Amount

Unless modified by the parties, the Credit Support Amount is generally the amount of Eligible Credit Support that the
Secured Party is entitled to hold as of a particular Valuation Date.

The Credit Support Amount is usually defined as:

the Secured Party’s Exposure; plus


the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor, if any; minus
the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Secured Party, if any; minus
the Pledgor’s Unsecured Threshold.

The Credit Support Amount, however, is deemed to be zero whenever its calculation would yield a number less than zero.

Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003 423


MT 506 SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1

Independent Amount

An Independent Amount is an amount that may be used as an add-on to Exposure which can reflect, among other things, the
volatility of a particular Transaction or credit concerns relating to one or both counterparties.

When an Independent Amount is applicable to a party, it increases the Credit Support Amount that is applicable when the
other party is the Secured Party and decreases the Credit Support Amount that is applicable when that party is the Secured
Party.

However, some parties may wish to modify the Credit Support Amount formula specified above to eliminate the subtraction
of Independent Amounts applicable to the Secured Party. In this case, the Independent Amount represents the minimum
Credit Support Amount when that party is a Credit Support Taker.

For example, Credit Support Amount may be defined as:

the Secured Party’s Exposure; plus


the aggregate of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor, if any, minus
the Pledgor’s Unsecured Threshold.

Provided that in the case where the sum of the Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor exceeds zero, the Credit
Support Amount will not be less than the sum of all Independent Amounts applicable to the Pledgor. In all other cases, the
Credit Support Amount will be deemed to be zero whenever the calculation of Credit Support Amount yields an amount less
than zero.

Hence, in the Collateral Messages, Independent Amounts should default to be treated as nettable unless being explicitly
stated as being non-netted.

Basic Amount

The Basic Amount with respect to any one party represents the minimum value of Posted Credit Support required at all
times from a counterparty independently of any exposure.

Basic Amounts are not subject to any form of netting with Delivery or Return Amounts.

Thresholds

The Threshold generally represents the amount of unsecured risk (measured by the Secured Party’s Exposure and the aggre-
gate of any Independent Amounts due, if any) that a party is willing to tolerate without holding any Posted Credit Support
provided by the other party.

Generally, under the standard definition of Credit Support Amount, the unsecured threshold is deducted from the current
exposure in order to arrive at the Credit Support Amount required for a particular Valuation Date.

Alternatively, given the flexibility provided under ISDA documentation, the parties can agree to vary the Credit Support
Amount definition so that when the exposure is greater than the threshold, the Credit Support Amount is calculated without
any deduction of the unsecured Threshold, ie, Credit Support Amount = the entire Secured Party’s exposure.

Such a threshold arrangement is commonly referred to by the market as a SECURED Threshold since, once breached, the
whole exposure is effectively offset by Posted Credit Support.

MT 507 Usage Rules


The exchange of information related to the trade itselfas well as to the settlement of the collateral is done with the existing
confirmation and settlement messages of the relevant categories (categories 2, 3, 5, 7, 9).

MT 507 Guidelines
The code identifying the exposure type or collateral reason in the user header of the message (block 3) must be identical to
the code contained in field :22H::COLA//xxxx (Exposure Type Indicator) in sequence A of the message content (text
block 4).

A collateral status and processing advice can be sent:

At initiation time:
When the initiative is taken by the taker, a collateral claim is sent asking the giver to post collateral. The claim
provides the exposure amount and the value of collateral required. The taker can also include the details of the
collateral he wants.

If the giver doesn’t know which collateral he will post when he receives the claim, he sends then a response
stating that he agrees with the claim and will propose collateral later.

If the giver does not agree with the claim and sends a response message to the taker stating the reason for not
agreeing

When the initiative is taken by the giver, a collateral proposal is sent to the taker containing the details of the
proposed collateral together with the exposure amount and the value of collateral required.

The taker agrees by sending a response message to the giver and awaits the settlement of the collateral.

Or the taker does not agree and sends a message stating the reason for not agreeing.

When a new exposure is created by a variation in the value of the exposure, in the value of the collateral or in both
values, the parties can do a valuation calculation and send a collateral and exposure statement.
The taker will send a claim for additional collateral to be posted by the giver, when the exposure from the taker
vis-à-vis the giver increases.

If the giver doesn’t know which collateral he will post when he receives the claim, he sends a response stating that
he agrees with the claim and propose collateral later.

If the giver does not agree with the claim, he sends a response message to the taker stating the reason for not
agreeing.

The giver will send a collateral claim containing the details of the collateral to be returned, when the exposure
from the taker vis-à-vis the giver decreases, The taker agrees by sending a response message to the giver and
awaits the settlement of the collateral.Or the taker does not agree and sends a message stating the reason for not
agreeing.
When termination occurs, the exposure between the parties has disappeared completely. This happens for instance
when a trade has reached maturity or when parties have decided to stop trading altogether or when an institution pulls
out of a clearing system. The giver will send a message claiming all posted collateral. The taker will send a response
confirming his agreement or disagreement.
A response can be sent to a collateral substitution proposal to the receiver confirming the agreement or the disagree-
ment of the sender of the response to the substitution proposal.

MT 508 Usage Rules


This message must not be used to report the movement of securities out of or into a safekeeping account. It reports only
on movements that affect the status/availability of the security, ie, movements from one sub-balance to another or
intra-position transfers, within that safekeeping account.
This message should also be used when the account servicer confirms an intra-position instruction, ie, following an MT
524.
In case of blocking of shares, depending on your internal processing method, you can use either an MT 566 Corporate
Action Confirmation or an MT 508 Intra-Position Advice. The MT 566 is to be used when the securities safekeeping
account is debited and another securities safekeeping account is credited. The MT 508 is to be used when the securities
remain in the same securities safekeeping account but are given a blocked status.

MT 513 Usage Rules


When an instruction is sent to a party other than the original Receiver, this original Receiver is identified in the other
parties sequence as :95a::MERE (Recipient of the Message).
When a broker is identified as a confirming party, the party capacity (:22F::TRCA) must be specified.
When an ETC service provider transfers a message from one institution to another, and when the originator of the
message is not already identified in the confirmation parties sequence or the settlement parties sequence, the originat-

Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003 615


MT 513 SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1

ing party is identified in the other parties sequence as :95a::MEOR (Originator of Message).
The MT 513 Advice of Execution may be sent either per partial execution or at the end of the execution day (along
with an average price in the case of two or more partial fills executed during the day), but not both.
In the case of partial executions, the message may include an optional repetitive partial fill sequence summarising
previously executed partial trades related to the order to buy or sell to which the MT 513 Advice of Execution relates.
An additional set of optional fields in the recap details sequence allows the executing party to indicate the total quantity
ordered, the quantity previously executed and the remaining quantity on order.
The Receiver of a request to cancel must advise the requesting party that the request has been accepted or denied in an
MT 509 Trade Status Message.

MT 514 Usage Rules


When an instruction is sent to a party other than the original Receiver, this original Receiver is identified in the other
parties sequence as :95a::MERE (Recipient of the Message).
The underlying fund or client, :95a::INVE, must be present.
When a broker is identified as a confirming party, the party capacity (:22F::TRCA) must be specified.
When an ETC service provider transfers a message from one institution to another, and when the originator of the
message is not already identified in the confirmation parties sequence or the settlement parties sequence, the originat-
ing party is identified in the other parties sequence as :95a::MEOR (Originator of Message).
Since there is only one allocation per MT 514, allocations must be linked by the master reference in the linkage
sequence.
When the message is used to pre-advise allocation details, the Trade Transaction Type must be PALL and the Master
Reference must be the same as the one assigned in the associated MT 502 Order to Buy or Sell. The pre-allocation

724 Standards Release Guide 2003 - Final edition - February 2003


SWIFTStandards - Category 5 Volume 1 MT 514

conditions are defined in the associated MT 502 Order to Buy or Sell.


When the MT 514 is sent to request a cancellation of a previously sent instruction, field 23G must contain the function
to cancel, the linkage subsequence must contain the reference of the instruction to be cancelled and the rest of the
message a copy of at least the mandatory fields of the instruction to be cancelled. The Allocation Number/Total
Number must be a separate series (see field definitions).
The Receiver of a request to cancel must advise the requesting party that the cancellation has been accepted or denied
in a MT 509 Trade Status Message.

Number specifies the number of days.

USAGE RULES

These two fields together enable the Receiver of the message to know when all the allocation instructions associated with
one block trade have been received. The master reference must be present in the linkage sequence.

When cancelling allocations the Function of the Message field must contain CANC and both the master reference and the
original Sender’s reference must be present in the linkage sequence for each allocation. A separate Current Allocation/Total
Number series must be used and not the original allocation numbers.

The replacement allocations must contain NEWM in field 23G Function of the Message and the master reference must be
present in the linkage sequence. A separate Current Allocation/Total Number series must be used and not the original series.
For example, a block trade may be made up of 100 allocations. Five of these may be cancelled and replaced by three new
ones. The Allocation Number/Total Number fields in the five cancellations must contain 1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, and 5/5 respec-
tively. Similarly, the Allocation Number/Total Number fields in the three new allocations must contain 1/3, 2/3, and 3/3

MT 515 Usage Rules


When an instruction is sent to a party other than the original Receiver, this original Receiver is identified in the other
parties sequence as :95a::MERE (Recipient of the Message).
The underlying fund or client (:95a::INVE), must be present.
When a broker is identified as a confirming party, the party capacity (:22F::TRCA) must be specified.
When an ETC service provider transfers a message from one institution to another, and when the originator of the
message is not already identified in the confirmation parties sequence or the settlement parties sequence, then the origi-
nating party is identified in the other parties sequence as :95a::MEOR (Originator of Message).
In the case of a non-allocated trade, when an order to buy or sell was executed in several parts, normally one confirma-
tion is sent for each day of execution. Where the confirmation is sent upon the final completion of the order, the
executing party may show the partial trades, listing the dates, times, quantities and prices (partial fill sequence).
The Receiver of a request to cancel must advise the requesting party that the request has been accepted or denied in an
MT 509 Trade Status Message.
