This is presumably to cater for the argument that a | This is presumably to cater for the pedantic argument — just the sort of argument that a diligent [[legal eagle]] with nothing better to do loves to run — that a “[[bid price]]” could be a percentage figure of a nominal amount, instead of a cash value, and this might upset the calculation. I mean, really. | ||
But even if a “price” isn’t necessarily a cash amount — to be sure, trading folk do talk that way sometimes, even if most sensible working folk don’t — the idea of the “{{csaprov|Base Currency Equivalent}}” of that price certainly turns it into one. You can’t exactly have “USD 86%”, can you? And if the {{csaprov|Eligible Credit Support}} includes [[collateral]] other than [[cash]] or [[Debt security|debt instrument]]s (e.g., [[equities]]), reference to a nominal amount multiplier is potentially confusing. | |||
