One so hardened in the ways of the Single Agreement, in whom the candle was lit so early and for whom it burns so brightly, that she still insists on trading on the 1987 ISDA.

More recently the label has begun to apply to those who still insisting on the now-32-year-old 1992 ISDA.

So named for Hiroo Onoda, a second lieutenant in the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II who did not get the memo that Emperor Hirohito had surrendered in October 1945 (because he was deep in the Burmese Jungle[1]) and so who continued fighting after the war’s end in 1945 for almost 29 years.

Onoda surrendered on 10 March 1974 and received a hero's welcome. He spent the remainder of his working life documenting Irish SPVs repackagings under a 1987 ISDA for JPMorgan.
