Scope An instructing party sends the StandingSettlementInstruction (SSI) message to the receiver to create or update a standing cash or securities settlement instruction. The message can also be used to notify a counterparty of an SSI.
Usage The instructing party (initiator) is: • An account servicer, for example, a global custodian or prime broker • A counterparty in a transaction, for example:
- an investment manager (executing broker),
- a global custodian (executing broker, prime broker) • A vendor’s application communicating on behalf of an account servicer or counterparty The receiver is: • An account owner, for example, an investment manager, hedge fund administrator or a party to which SSI operations have been outsourced • A counterparty, for example:
- an investment manager (executing broker)
- a global custodian (executing broker, prime broker) • A vendor’s application communicating on behalf of the account owner or counterparty.
Message Construction
Every ISO20022 message has at the highest level what we call ‘building blocks’. Because the message is constructed as immutable records, the association is by composition. Below you can see the relationship between the message and its constituent building blocks: For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification
classDiagram direction LR %% StandingSettlementInstructionV01 recursion level 0 with max 0 class StandingSettlementInstructionV01{ MessageReferenceIdentification IsoMax35Text SettlementCurrency ActiveCurrencyCode } StandingSettlementInstructionV01 *-- "0..1" EffectiveDate1 : EffectiveDateDetails StandingSettlementInstructionV01 *-- "1..1" AccountIdentification26 : AccountIdentification StandingSettlementInstructionV01 *-- "1..1" IMarketIdentificationOrCashPurpose1Choice : MarketIdentification StandingSettlementInstructionV01 *-- "1..1" ISecuritiesOrCash1Choice : SettlementDetails StandingSettlementInstructionV01 *-- "0..1" SupplementaryData1 : SupplementaryData
Now, we will zero-in one-by-one on each of these building blocks.
MessageReferenceIdentification building block
Reference of this message. Specifies a character string with a maximum length of 35 characters. For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification This message is declared as Max35Text in the ISO specification. In our implementation, it is represented in source code as IsoMax35Text. Due to global using directives, it is treated as a System.String by the compiler and runtime.
EffectiveDateDetails building block
Date on which the SSI is effective. Date and date parameters. For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification
classDiagram direction tb %% EffectiveDate1 recursion level 0 with max 1 class EffectiveDate1{ EffectiveDate IsoISODate EffectiveDateParameter ExternalEffectiveDateParameter1Code }
EffectiveDate1 members
Member name | Description | Data Type / Multiplicity |
---|---|---|
EffectiveDate | Date on which the SSI is effective. If the SSI is effective on a future date, then the date must be provided. | IsoISODate - Required 1..1 |
EffectiveDateParameter | Specifies how the SSI update effective date is to be applied. | ExternalEffectiveDateParameter1Code - Optional 0..1 |
AccountIdentification building block
Unique and unambiguous master identification known to the sender (or its authorised agent) and receiver (or its authorised agent), below which the SSI will be lodged. This may be an account number or reference to a fund. If no account or reference is available then “NONREF” must be specified. Unique identifier of an account, as assigned by the account servicer. For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification

Member name | Description | Data Type / Multiplicity |
---|---|---|
Proprietary | Unique identifier for an account. It is assigned by the account servicer using a proprietary identification scheme. | SimpleIdentificationInformation4 - Required 1..1 |
MarketIdentification building block
Identifies the market for the standing settlement instruction. Choice of cash purpose or a securities market identifier. For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification

SettlementCurrency building block
Currency for which the SSI is specified. A code allocated to a currency by a Maintenance Agency under an international identification scheme as described in the latest edition of the international standard ISO 4217 “Codes for the representation of currencies and funds”. For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification This message is declared as ActiveCurrencyCode in the ISO specification. In our implementation, it is represented in source code as ActiveCurrencyCode. Due to global using directives, it is treated as a System.String by the compiler and runtime.
SettlementDetails building block
Settlement chain parties, accounts and other details. Choice of securities or cash parties. For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification

PlaceAndName | Unambiguous reference to the location where the supplementary data must be inserted in the message instance. In the case of XML, this is expressed by a valid XPath. | IsoMax350Text - Optional 0..1 |
Envelope | Technical element wrapping the supplementary data. | IsoSupplementaryDataEnvelope1 - Required 1..1 |
Extensibility and generalization considerations
To facilitate generalized design patterns in the system, the StandingSettlementInstructionV01 implementation follows a specific implementaiton pattern. First of all, StandingSettlementInstructionV01 impleemnts IOuterRecord indicating it is the outermost logical part of the message definition. Like all message wrappers, StandingSettlementInstructionV01Document implements IOuterDocument. Because StandingSettlementInstructionV01 implements IOuterDocument, it is a suitable template parameter for IOuterDocument, and causes the internal ‘Message’ to be of type StandingSettlementInstructionV01.
classDiagram class IOuterRecord StandingSettlementInstructionV01 --|> IOuterRecord : Implements StandingSettlementInstructionV01Document --|> IOuterDocument~StandingSettlementInstructionV01~ : Implements class IOuterDocument~StandingSettlementInstructionV01~ { StandingSettlementInstructionV01 Message }
Document wrapper for serialization
The only real purpose StandingSettlementInstructionV01Document serves is to cause the document to be serialized into the ‘urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:reda.056.001.01’ namespace. Therefore, it will probably be the usual practice to build the message and construct this wrapper at the last minute using StandingSettlementInstructionV01.ToDocument() method. The returned StandingSettlementInstructionV01Document value will serialize correctly according to ISO 20022 standards.
