Next Version

The next planned version of openfunds will be version 2.11 of openfunds. This will be released in Q1 2025 and be a general updates version. A list of fields already planned to be included in the next version is as follows. These fields may be used by members in advance of official publication, with the caveat that they are not yet finalised:

New fields

  • OFCA000005 Corporate Action Level
    • Values: “Umbrella” / “Fund” / “Share Class”
    • Definition: A field to indicate the hierarchical level on which the action has occurred. This can be used to show that the action applies at a higher level than the ID supplied, but should not be used in the reverse context. For example, the value “Umbrella” could be used here alongside a value in OFCA000080 Corporate Action Share Class ISIN to indicate that the action applies to all share classes within the umbrella that the given share class belongs to. This cannot be used in reverse, stating “Share Class” but giving a fund or umbrella ID in OFCA000060 Corporate Action Umbrella LEI or OFCA000070 Corporate Action Fund LEI, as it would not be clear to which share class the action applied. For best clarity, all identifiers affected by the action should be given.

Changes

  • OFPH000450 Holding Number of Shares – Data Type to be amended from “integer” to “double” to reflect possibility of non-integer decimal values.

No longer supported fields

  • OFST160045 Is Structured Finance Product – proposed to be moved to “No longer supported” as it only references EMT and is superfluous to that template
