Footnotes:

[1] In principle, only instruments denominated and settled in foreign currency (or those whose valuation is directly dependent on the exchange rate and that are settled in foreign currency) is to be included in categories I, II, and III of the template.

[2] Netting of positions is allowed only if they have the same maturity, are against the same counterparty, and a master netting agreement is in place. Positions on organized exchanges could also be netted.

[3] Monetary authorities defined according to the IMF Balance of Payments Manual, Fifth Edition.

[4] In cases of large positions visàvis institutions headquartered in the reporting country, in instruments other than deposits or securities, they should be reported as separate items.

[5] The valuation basis for gold assets should be disclosed; ideally, this would be done by showing the volume and price.

[6] Including interest payments due within the corresponding time horizons. Foreign currency deposits held by nonresidents with central banks should also be included here. Securities referred to are those issued by the monetary authorities and the central Bank.

[7] In the event that there are forward or futures positions with a residual maturity greater than one year, which could be subject to margin calls, these should be reported separately under Section IV.

[8] Only bonds with a residual maturity greater than one year should be reported under this item, as those with shorter maturities will already be included in Section II, above.

[9] Reporters should distinguish potential inflows and potential outflows resulting from contingent lines of credit and report them separately, in the specified format.

[10] In the event that there are options positions with a residual maturity greater than one year, which could be subject to margin calls, these should be reported separately under Section IV.

[11] These "stress tests" are an encouraged, rather than a prescribed, category of information in the IMF’s Special Data Dissemination Standard (SDDS). Results of the stress-tests could be disclosed in the form of a graph. As a rule, notional value should.

[12] Distinguish between assets and liabilities where applicable.

[13] Identify types of instrument; the valuation principles should be the same as in Sections IIII.  Where applicable, the notional value of non-deliverable forward positions should be shown in the same format as for the nominal value of deliverable forward.

[14] Only assets included in Section I that are pledged should be reported here.

[15] Assets that are lent or repoed should be reported here, whether or not they have been included in Section I of the template, along with any associated liabilities (in Section II). However, these should be reported in two separate categories.

[16] Identify types of instrument. The main characteristics of internal models used to calculate the market value should be disclosed.
