Object documentationPosition Management Category

 

Positions belonging to different product categories place different demands on position management (valuation). Therefore, different position management categories have been defined, and these categories use different procedures for key date valuation.

The system uses the following eight position management categories:

  1. Securities/Loans/Money Market Transactions/Listed Options, Normal Style (Without Index-Linked Bonds)

  2. Index-Linked Bonds

  3. OTC Derivatives (Profit-Related Postings) (used for OTC options, interest rate swaps, FRAs, and caps/floors)

  4. Listed Options (Future Style) and Futures

  5. Foreign Exchange Transactions

  6. Forwards/Repos

  7. OTC Derivatives (Transfer Posting to Underlying)

  8. Securities/Loans with Installment Repayment (Without Index-Linked Bonds)

A position management procedure relates to one position management category.
