Attribute Definition
Role There are 6 roles in a gpi transaction: gCCT Instructing Agent, gCCT Intermediary Agent, gCCT Instructed
Agent, gCOV Instructing Agent, gCOV Reimbursement Agent and gCOV Last Reimbursement Agent
• gCCT Instructing Agent: First gpi Agent that instructs the next gpi party in the transaction chain to carry out
the set of gpi CCT instructions
• gCCT Intermediary Agent: gpi Agent between the gCCT Instructing Agent and the gCCT Instructed Agent
• gCCT Instructed Agent: Agent that is instructed by the previous gpi party in the chain to carry out the set of
gpi instructions. The gCCT Instructed Agent can be the Beneficiary’s bank or the last gpi Agent in the
transaction chain.
• gCOV Instructing Agent: First gpi Agent that instructs the next gpi party in the transaction chain to carry out
the set of gpi cover payment instructions
• gCOV Reimbursement Agent: gCOV Agent between the gCOV Instructing Agent and the gCOV Last
Reimbursement Agent
• gCOV Last Reimbursement Agent: Agent that is instructed by the previous gpi party in the chain to carry
out the set of gpi cover payment instructions. gCOV Last Reimbursement Agent is the last gpi Agent in the
cover payment transaction chain

updates from the status originator
• ACSP/G002: Credit to creditor’s account cannot be confirmed same day; Update will follow
• ACSP/G003: Credit to creditor’s account is pending receipt of required documents. Instructed gpi Agent has
requested the creditor to provide additional documentation; Update will follow
Observer Insights - Getting Started - September 2019 • ACSP/G004: Credit to creditor’s account is pending, status originator waiting for funds provided by or on 48

Metrics (2/2)
Metric Definition
gpi Quality Index This metric shows all gpi Agents if they are properly following the gpi rulebooks. The index is
calculated at BIC8 level. It is used to monitor whether gpi Agents comply to the rulebook based on a
defined overall performance threshold of 90%. The calculation of the index is a weighted average of
the different KPIs.
Same day value ratio This metric shows the ratio of transactions that met the same day value business rule divided by all
transactions measured on this business rule (excluding the n/a). This ratio is a KPI and is used to
calculate the quality index.
Traceability ratio This metric shows the ratio of the transactions that met the traceability business rule divided by all
transactions measured on this business rule (excluding the n/a). This ratio is a KPI and is used to
calculate the quality index.
Deducts Transparency ratio This metric shows the ratio of the transactions that met the deducts transparency business rule
divided by all transactions measured on this business rule (excluding the n/a). This ratio is a KPI and
is used to calculate the quality index.
Unaltered Remittance ratio This metric shows the ratio of the transactions that met the unaltered remittance business rule
divided by all transactions measured on this business rule (excluding the n/a). This ratio is a KPI and
is used to calculate the quality index.
Unaltered Cover Amount ratio This metric shows the ratio of the transactions that met the unaltered cover amount business rule
divided by all transactions measured on this business rule (excluding the n/a).
