If you think of an ISDA transaction as comprising offsetting payment streams, these fall into one of three places:

  • Been and gone: Already paid: settled, gone, checked into the hereafter; on permanent location in that foreign country we call the past;
  • Yet to come: Due to be paid, or delivered, at a specified date in the future. Perhaps fixed; perhaps yet to be determined, but conceptually still out there. It is, conventionally, by off setting the provisional present value of these future cashflows, that we value “the Transaction” — this is what we call its “replacement cost”.
  • That weird inter-regnum of payments whose due date has passed, and who should have emigrated to that foreign country but, for whatever reason — either through inattention, inability, defiance, or the affordances of Section 2(a)(iii) — they have not yet been made, so they need to be accounted for over and above the “replacement” value of the trade.

They are of interest in two cases: Default — clearly a significant possibility where a party is not meetings it oblighations as they fall due; and when taking credit support under the CSA, because they are of interest in calculating ones Exposure.

You may want to know where Unpaid Amounts feature in the ISDA Master Agreement. The answer: In Payments on Early Termination: Section 6(e)(i) (for Events of Default) and 6(e)(ii) (for Termination Events) and 6(e)(iv) (Adjustment for Illegality or Force Majeure Event).
