MT 506 Format Specifications

The user header of the message (block 3) is mandatory and must contain a code in the Validation Flag field 119 ( {3:{119:xxxx}} ) to identify the exposure type or collateral reason.

These codes may be used for routing purposes.

The statement consists of four sequences.

Sequence A General Information provides general information about the message and the collateral transaction, ie, the function of the message, the identification of the collateral transaction, the references of the linked messages, the identification of the underlying agreement(s), the identification of the parties, the reason for which collateral is needed, the exposure type and the contact information.

Sequence B Summary provides information related to the collateral position, ie, the identification of the exposed party, the total exposure amount and the total collateral amount held by the taker. It also contains the valuation dates and the requested settlement date of collateral if there is a shortage of collateral. The sequence contains an optional subsequence with the amounts taken in to account to calculate the collateral position. These amounts are required for certain types of exposures.

Repetitive sequence C Exposure Valuation Details contains the valuation details of the exposure. The identification and the value of the trades and the other elements that constitute the total exposure are included one by one.

Repetitive sequence D Collateral Valuation Details contains the valuation details of the collateral held by the taker. The identification and the value of each piece of collateral are included one by one.
