  2. Identify Mandatory vs Optional attributes.
  3. Document the life cycle of the Agency bond and what  would be supported by the FINOS group - whether Call schedule will be maintained, whether internal prices will be shared etc. 
  4. Agree/ Define relationship with vendors for distribution of the Agency static. (Whether FINOS will own the distribution of the static to BBG etc or whether it would still remain the responsibility of the Financial Institution involved in the underwriting)
