Will there be any changes in FIX for compliance with ISO 15022
[ original email was from John Goeller - jgoeller@lehman.com ]
The simple answer to your question is ‘No’ since to be compliant with the current version of ISO 15022 FIX would have to change its’ syntax. FIX has a tag=value syntax while ISO 15022 has a code/qualifier style syntax. See my previous post (http://www.fixprotocol.org/cgi-bin/BBS.cgi?menu=928951581bbs&board=928951581&message=116&thread=113) for more information.
The longer answer relates to the work that FIX is undertaking under ISO 15022 XML Working Group 10 with SWIFT and other industry organizations around the idea of future standards development and the industry’s use of XML. Working Group 10 is proposing an update of the existing ISO 15022 standard to support future standards interoperability.
I suggest you review the ISO XML Working Group archive for more details on the subject of ISO and FIX.
