Trying to communicate Instrument’s Sector and Region in FIX 5.0. Are there standard tags for these?

Thanks

Dear Abhay ,

Looking at the Instrument Identifier proposal for Fixed Income I see no identifier for SECTOR.

Tag 22 ID Source (Marketplace is close) but no match.

This should be raised at the FPL FIXED INCOME STEERING COMMITTEE on the 20/09/2011 if unanimously required.

Wouldn’t the execution Venuer and Instrument depict the sector.

Is this US specific?

As you work for Marketaxess, how do you propose to use it, or do you know as an ECN provide it?

Have you supplied this request to the Fixed Income GAP ANALYSIS to eTradingSoftware?
