Swaption Cash Settlement

October 25th, 2010, 6:18 pm

Anyone know where I can find ISDA documentation on Swaption Cash Settlement possibilities.Particularly I am interested in whether US Banks offer a European type Cash Settlement ability - ie where the Swaption price & payoff is discounted using a flat yield curve equal to the relevant Swap Rate, as opposed to using the whole yield curve.ThanksLuke
