===And the difference between {{eqderivprov|Calculation Agent}} and {{eqderivprov|Determining Party}} is?===
===And the difference between {{eqderivprov|Calculation Agent}} and {{eqderivprov|Determining Party}} is?===
In drafting the equity derivative definitions {{tag|ISDA}} was agnostic as to who would be {{eqderivprov|Calculation Agent}}, but recognised that while some calculations could be performed by whoever was Calculation Agent, {{eqderivprov|Cancellation Amount}} calculations were inextricably related to unwinding the hedge – usually in the case of a disruption – and this would naturally best be calculated by the {{eqderivprov|Hedging Party}} – being the person unwinding the hedge. If that’s not the Calculation Agent, it needed to be treated differently.
