Definition

The default setting for valuing options on swaps is to treat the fixed side of the underlying swap as a bond, and calculate the NPV of the bond option.

This indicator controls whether the swaption should instead be valued as a total of interest rate options, one for each interest rate swap.

In Asset/Liability Management, the fixed side of a swaption is always treated as a bond option.
