BS ISO 10962:2021 pdf download – Securities and related financial instruments — Classification of financial instruments (CFI) code The CFI code is composed of six alphabetic characters where each character position has special significance. The structure can be summarized as follows (detailed descriptions are provided in the following subclauses): — The first character represents the Category of the instrument. — The second character represents the Group within a given Category. — The third to the sixth characters are attributes which are defined to be significant within the context of a given Category and Group. The alphabetic characters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y and Z are available for assignment. Two alphabetic characters have special meanings and cannot be redefined: X Not applicable or undefined: the character ‘X’ may be used for any respective Attribute if the infor- mation is unknown, not available or applicable at the time of assignment, regardless of whether it is stated as an available character for the Attribute and should be updated to reflect the respective Attribute as soon as it is known or available. The character ‘X’ shall not be used as a value in this manner for Category or Group. M Others (miscellaneous): the character ‘M’ exclusively represents ‘Others (miscellaneous)’ and may only be used where it is available as a character within the context of its parent category or group. ‘M’ is only to be selected when the Category, Group or Attribute being classified shall not be attributed to an existing specified Category, Group or Attribute. The meaning of an alphabetic character is local to, and only valid within, the context of its parent category or its group. Refer to Annex A for an example. 4.2 Category The first character indicates the highest level of classification, the Category, which describes the broad asset classes of the instrument, such as debt, equities, listed options, referential instruments or swaps. 4.3 Group The second character indicates specific Groups within each category.
