Confirmation templates for use with version 2.0 of the Equity Definitions VE are also available in MyLibrary.
This publication is part of the initiative to allow additions and improvements to be made to the 2002 Equity Definitions, as published by ISDA in 2002. More information on such initiative can be found here and by joining the ISDA Equity Market Infrastructure Group.
