Definition
Treasury and Risk Management Transaction Manager
Reporting for a given date / evaluation of positions for the key date
All open futures positions are revalued by the respective futures and options exchange at the end of each trading day. This mark-to-market valuation is used to calculate the gains and losses (= variation margin) of the futures positions resulting from daily market fluctuations. The variation margin is credited or debited on a daily basis. If this brings the balance below the initial margin, enough capital must be injected to restore the original initial margin.
This key figure is displayed in valuation currency. You define the valuation currency for each (parallel) valuation area. This is the currency in which the positions in a valuation area are managed, and can therefore be regarded as the "local currency" of the valuation area.
