EP015 – FIXFpML

Defines two methods for referring to an FpML product specification from a FIX Instrument. The first embeds the FpML XML in EncodedSecurityDesc, using SecurityIDSource to identify an ISDA/FpML product specification. The second places a URL in SecurityID and introduces a separate SecurityIDSource value for an ISDA/FpML product URL. The supplied Execution Report illustrates an interest-rate swap whose detailed economics remain in FpML while FIX carries the trade and execution envelope.
