Add interest base rate type - instant

Use case

With the example of the Riksbank Reference Rate we will show how to add an interest base rate type with instant rate application rule to the Tuum system.

Use case data
API parameters with values

We will add the Riksbank Reference Rate base rate.

{
  "rateBaseCode": "Riksbank Reference Rate",
  "maturityTypeCode": null,
  "maturityLength": null,
  "currencyCode": "SEK",
  "referenceRateTypeCode": "RIX_RR",
...
}

The base rate is applied to the existing loan offers and contracts periodically.

"rateApplicationRule": "INSTANT"

The 4eye confirmation for the the rate fixings is required.

"fourEyeRequired": true

The rateApplicationRule parameter can have the following values:

  • INSTANT - base rate requires contracts mass update after the new fixing rate is added.

  • PERIODIC - the base rate has a defined contract floating period.

  • NONE - the base rate type does not require contracts update.
