{{ | The {{vmcsa}} adds in the {{csaprov|FX Haircut Percentage}} into the multiplier, that being (in some jurisdictions) a fairly hefty surcharge for those people who like to collateralise in a currency other than the one in which their derivatives are denominated, and also (partially) corrects the snafu about ineligible credit support, at least on a Default. | ||
Once there is a {{vmcsaprov|Default}}, you are working things out, and {{vmcsaprov|FX Haircut Percentage}}s and {{vmcsaprov|Valuation Percentage}}s no longer matter because rather than assigning a ''notional'' value for the asset in the {{vmcsaprov|Base Currency}} ''if'' liquidated — and therefore giving yourself a little buffer for rainy day and so on — ''the rainy day has arrived''. You are ''actually'' liquidating the asset, which will already have yesterday’s haircut applied to it, the counterparty isn’t to be giving you any more, and the money you raise from selling the {{vmcsaprov|Credit Support Balance}}, whether eligible or not, is real money, it really pays down your claim, and you have to account to the Defaulting Party’s administrator for anything left once you have closed out your {{isda}}. | |||

{{ | The Valuation terms as between {{nycsa}} and {{csa}} didn’t change a great deal: here is a {{diff|86696|86695}}. It got a bit more hinky with the arrival of the [[Modern CSA]]s: here’s a {{diff|86673|86664}} between the 1995 and the 2016 VM CSAs. | ||
Whereas the [[OG CSA]]s are kind of laissez faire — yo, dudes, put whatever you like in the elections para, you know — because a [[credit support annex]] back then was a bit of a wheeze, and no-one really understood it — in the intervening 21 years {{icds}} got all ''nudgy''. | |||
So they say “every business day” ''unless'' you specify something else and, like, you are ''not'' going to specify something else, are you, because regulatory rules ''say'' it has to be every day. | |||
[[Valuation Date - VM CSA Provision|Note]] also the introduction in 2016 of a {{vmcsaprov|Valuation Date Location}}: each party gets to choose one, being its own hometown. If you’re off dancing the maypole, or whatever collective cultural tradition you follow in your part of the world (In the Czech Republic, I am told, at Easter the boys chase the girls round the kitchen table with riding crops. Which sounds kind fun), then you should have no fear you’ll get called on to make a collateral transfer. | |||

{{ | The {{{{{1}}}|Valuation Time}} definition loosens up somewhat in the VM CSAs. More discussion of that below, and here is a {{diff|86673|86664}}, for the fiendishly interested. | ||
