Smart-arse point: A [[warranty]] is a contractual assurance, made as part of a concluded contract, and cannot, logically, be relied on by the other party when entering into the contract. An assurance on which one relies when deciding to enter into a {{t|contract}} is a [[representation]]. | Smart-arse point: A [[warranty]] is a contractual assurance, made as part of a concluded contract, and cannot, logically, be relied on by the other party when entering into the contract.

The [[entire agreement]] clause is legal boilerplate to nix any unwanted application of the [[parol evidence]] rule. Which might be a problem because the time-honoured understanding between all right-thinking derivatives trading folk is that the [[oral agreement]], between the traders is the binding legal agreement, and not the subsequent confirmation, hammered out between middle office and operations folk after the trade is done. Hasten to Section {{ | “This {{isdaprov|Agreement}}”, courtesy of how it is defined in Section {{isdaprov|1(c)}}, includes the ISDA Master pre-printed form, {{isdaprov|Schedule}} ''and each {{isdaprov|Confirmation}} entered into under it.'' | ||
