Definition

Indicator determining whether the currency is a criterion for position calculation.

Use

The criteria that define a position are different depending on the Treasury application. This indicator controls whether the currency is required for position calculation.

The currency plays an important part in position management. It is the currency in which the position amounts are updated. For securities, this is the currency in which they were issued. For options and futures, it is the currency in which they are listed. The currency is therefore not a criterion for position identification; it is merely retained in the position for informative purposes.

With currency and foreign note positions, however, the currency is the main criterion for identifying the position. The exchange rate type is used to differentiate currency and foreign note positions.

This indicator is usually set for all product categories.
