Following on from last year’s ISDA survey on changing the market convention for the cash settlement of EUR swaptions from ‘Par Yield Curve – Unadjusted’ to ‘Collateralized Cash Price’, ISDA has updated the 2006 ISDA Definitions Settlement Matrix for Early Termination and Swaptions (the ISDA Settlement Matrix), effective November 26, 2018, to show Collateralized Cash Price as the default cash settlement method for EUR swaptions from this date forward – Link to the ISDA Settlement Matrix.
Please also note that ISDA has published an updated definition of ‘Collateralized Cash Price’ under Supplement 58 to the 2006 ISDA Definitions, that links the determination of the discount factors with swaps cleared at the Mutually Agreed Clearinghouse (if specified in the Confirmation) – Link to Supplement 58.
