Payment schedule
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The payment schedule of financial instruments defines the dates at which payments are made by one party to another on for example a bond or derivative. It can be either customised or parameterised.
[edit] Paramterised Schedule
The schedule is generated based on a set of rules and market conventions to define the frequencies of the payments.
These parameters include:
- Payment Frequency (Annually, Semi Annually, Quarterly, Monthly, Weekly, Daily, Continuous)
- Payment Day - Day of the month the payment is made
- Date rolling - Rule used to adjust the payment date if the schedule date is not a Business Day
- Start Date - Date of the first Payment
- End Date - Also known as the Maturity date. The date of the last payment
[edit] Customised Schedule
The schedule consists of a series of dates that define exactly when payments will be made.
