re: Fix 4.3 standards and field values

19 Apr 2002 6:42AM ET 1) ISO 15022, like the FIX Protoocol, is at a "higher level" than these standards which define values for a specific type of field. ISO 15022 uses these same "base" standards. I believe that as of FIX 4.3, the FIX Protocol and ISO 15022 use the same set of "base standards" (in Appendix 6-B). You can find out more about ISO 15022 at www.iso15022.org Each ISO standard has a "Registration Authority" who administers the standard and each standard may have their own approach to making them available and providing updates. In general the actual, official standard which is voted on by all of the countries tends to reflect how the standard is administered and the rules for the composition of the values vs. the actual list of values themselves.
2) I would recommend trimming any leading/trailing spaces.

> Currency ISO 4217:1995
> Exchange/Market Code ISO 10383:1992
> Security Identification ISO 6166:2001
> Security Type/Classification ISO 10962:2001
