Amazing how many words you can contrive to take to say nothing when you put your mind to it. The first day of your Transaction. Thanks for writing in, ISDA.

Basics

The Effective Date is the day when everything starts for real on a Transaction — at which point payments start happening, Calculation Period begin to run and so on. To be contrasted with the Trade Date, being the date when traded and went “on risk” — at that point you struck your prices (Initial Price, Strike Price, so on).

So the sequence is Trade Date, Effective Date — — and Termination Date.
