USAGE RULES

In option R, Proprietary Code specifies a local national code or market segment code identifying the party.

  • Type of ID specifies the type of alternate identification that can be used to give an alternate identification of the party identified in this sequence.

  • Country Code specifies the country for which the alternate identification is relevant.

  • Alternate ID specifies an alternate identification of the party identified in this sequence.

The qualifier INVE is to be used only when the investor cannot be a trade counterparty for legal reasons, for example, in Japan where the trust bank arranges the deal with the broker.

When INVE is used with option C, the country code specifies the nationality of the investor, for the settlement of certain securities (that is airlines, defence manufacturers) under the EU legislation.

EXAMPLE

Repetition of Investor (INVE) could be as follows:

:95Q::INVE//Mr. Smith

:95C::INVE//US

Mr. Smith is the investor and declares to be a US citizen.
