WM changes

Note: In difference to our announcement CBF Release in May 2017: Advance announcement of changes which was published in February 2017, the mentioned point “New CBF-WSS fields relating to the dual currency bonds” will not be implemented.

The following enhancements will be introduced in the context of the WM changes:

  • New Qualifier RATE in the SECMOVE debit sequence for Event Type TA140 to illustrate the complete redemption rate
    The redemption rate will be displayed in the SECMOVE debit sequence with the RATE qualifier in the whole MT564 and MT566 cycle to provide complete information for the partial redemption, including the pay-down part as well as the loss part.
  • New selection rule for liquidation to differentiate between withdrawal with and without securities
    For tax purposes, a distinction must be made between liquidations with or without withdrawal of securities. Events with the exchange reason 06 ("Liquidation") without withdrawal (reduction type = without securities) will, therefore, be processed as event type 125 in future. Events with the exchange reason 06 ("Liquidation") with withdrawal (reduction type = with securities) will be processed as event type 133. Corporate action event indicator will be LIQU in both cases.
  • New event indicator for the new conversion reason ”Split”, event typeTA232 Whenever the conversion reason is set to Split “ET” in the Conversion segment, the event indicator CAEV will be set to SPLF in the whole SWIFT message chain.
  • Event indicator for the new conversion reason "Issue Premium Payment"
    Whenever the conversion reason is set to Issue premium payment “ES” in the Conversion segment, the event indicator CAEV will be set to SHPR in the whole SWIFT message chain.
