| === Fixing the {{eqderivprov|Paid Amount}} concept ===
| |
| So we have two problems: what to do if the [[record date]] for a {{eqderivprov|Dividend Amount}} falls ''before'' the [[trade date]] for a {{eqderivprov|Transaction}}, and what to do if the [[dividend payment date]] falls ''after'' the {{eqderivprov|Transaction}} terminates.
| |
|
| |
|
| Neither of these contingencies, predictable though they seem to be, is addressed in the {{eqdefs}}. But help is at hand: the [[JC]] — errors and omissions excepted, all usual [[disclaimer]]s applying — humbly offers the following corrective for your [[Master Confirmation Agreement]]:
| |
|
| |
| :“{{eqderivprov|Paid Amount}}” will apply, provided that:
| |
| ::(a) where the {{eqderivprov|Share}} was trading “[[ex-dividend]]” as of the {{isdadefsprov|Effective Date}}, the {{eqderivprov|Paid Amount}} will be zero; and
| |
| ::(b) where the {{isdaprov|Transaction}} terminates ''after'' the {{eqderivprov|Share}} commenced trading “[[ex-dividend]]” but ''before'' the scheduled {{eqderivprov|Dividend Payment Date}}, the {{eqderivprov|Equity Amount Payer}} will pay any {{eqderivprov|Paid Amount}} one [[settlement cycle]] following payment of the corresponding dividend by the {{eqderivprov|Issuer}} to holders of record of the {{eqderivprov|Share}}.
