Line 1: Line 1:
Duration is the weighted average timing of the cash flows of an instrument, weighted by the present values of the cash flows.
(SDD). A direct debit made under the SEPA scheme rules, either within or across national boundaries within Europe, whereby one-off and repetitive payments are initiated by the payee to collect payments electronically from the debtor’s bank account based on a mandate giving pre-authorisation.


Macaulay’s duration uses the ''yield to maturity'' of the instrument to work out the present values to use for weighting in the duration calculation.
The scheme provides for mandate creation, predictable and convenient time-cycles, appropriate refund rules and the necessary features to permit end to end straight-through-processing.

The scheme provides for mandate creation, predictable and convenient time-cycles, appropriate refund rules and the necessary features to permit end to end straight-through-processing.
