The 2006 ISDA Fund Derivatives Definitions are intended for use in confirmations of individual derivatives transactions linked to interests in various types of pooled investment vehicles, such as hedge funds and mutual funds. They are a streamlined version of the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions tailored to account for the particular valuation and settlement characteristics of fund interests. They differ from the 2002 Definitions primarily in that the 2006 ISDA Fund Derivatives Definitions do not contain market valuation methodologies, physical settlement mechanics or other provisions that are more suitable for equity securities whose value is primarily derived from secondary market transactions and in that they contain Extraordinary Events geared toward funds and events that may impact investors in such funds.
