FIX MESSAGE 35=DL

PositionTransferInstruction

MsgType (35) = DLPositionMaintenanceAdded FIX.5.0SP2

Definition

The PositionTransferInstruction(35=DL) is sent by clearing firms to CCPs to initiate position transfers, or to accept or decline position transfers.

Message structure 2646 distinct fields

Source order, including nested components and groups. Group counts precede the repeated entries. “Required here” is relative to the enclosing component or group, not unconditional in the message. A dash means not marked required; conditional requirements remain in the source notes. This is a reference, not a counterparty-specific validator.

Nested fields load when needed. Open the full static layout (also works without JavaScript).
