===Timing of transfers under a CSA===
====Timing of transfers under a CSA====
This is how the timing works for CSA transfers. Remember the {{{{{1}}}|Valuation Agent}} is simply the person making the demand. Terminology check: to make this easy we refer to both {{{{{1}}}|Delivery Amount}}s ''and'' {{{{{1}}}|Return Amount}}s as “'''{{{{{1}}}|Transfer Amount}}s'''”. The date on which someone actually demands a Transfer Amount we call a “'''{{{{{1}}}|Demand Date}}'''”.

'''{{vmcsa}}''': In the new world we have the new concept of the [[Regular Settlement Day - VM CSA Provision|''Regular'' Settlement Day]], and this is the same {{vmcsaprov|Local Business Day}} as the Demand Date. The run-off text at the end of Paragraph {{vmcsaprov|3(a)}} gives you a little more flex: if the demand came after the {{vmcsaprov|Notification Time}}, then you must make the transfer by close on the {{vmcsaprov|Regular Settlement Day}} for the next day.<ref>Just how the business days interact under the ISDA and CSA is about as complicated as string theory, by the way.

===Questions===
'''{{{{{1}}}|Demand Date}} not a {{{{{1}}}|Local Business Day}}''': What if the Demand Date is not a {{{{{1}}}|Local Business Day}}? E.g., what if it is received after the {{{{{1}}}|Notification Time}} on a Friday, meaning the {{csaprov|Settlement Day}} takes place on the date on which a trade, effected on a Saturday, would have been settled in accordance with customary practice?

*'''Securities''': For securities this is ok: a trade effected on a non-business day would be deemed to be effected on the next following Local Business Day anyway, so it would pick this up.
