The 1995 CSA is not a Credit Support Document...

Note that a CSA[1] is not a Credit Support Document, and you should not list it as one in Part 4 of the Schedule, however satisfying it might be to do so. I mean it sounds like one, right? But no: the counterparty cannot be its own Credit Support Provider. The 1995 CSA is, rather, a Transaction under the ISDA Master Agreement. This is rather important to the whole issue of close-out netting. Deep ISDA lore.

... But the 1994 NY CSA is a Credit Support Document

Because it is a security financial collateral arrangement arrangement and not a title transfer collateral arrangement, transfer of credit support under a 1994 NY CSA[2] does not change the net liabilities between the parties, the 1994 NY CSA (and its regulatory VM successor, the 2016 NY Law VM CSA is a Credit Support Document and not a transaction under the ISDA Master Agreement. Fun, huh?
