Assignment (also used in German)
Unless otherwise defined, in a swap transaction – and here again particularly in an interest rate swap – this refers to the transfer of a contractual position to a new counterparty. The previous counterparty in the swap transaction must be prepared to accept the new contractual partner (party to the agreement). – See Close-out, Reversal.
