Holiday Data

Strata provides a comprehensive holiday calendar system. However, such a system also needs the associated data, specifying which days are holidays. This page details the provided holiday calendars.

Holiday calendars

Each holiday calendar represents a consistent set of weekends and holidays. In most cases they refer to a specific location, however some calendars are location independent.

The intention of providing these calendars is to allow the system to be easily evaluated. When using this library in production, OpenGamma strongly recommends replacing the data provided with data from an external vendor of holiday information.

The holiday dates are based on original research and typically cover 1950 to 2099. Future and past dates are an extrapolations of the known holiday dates.

The default column indicates if that calendar is the default for the currency.

Holiday calendars have a constant in HolidayCalendarIds. The identifier can also be created dynamically using HolidayCalendarId.of(name).

Additional Holiday calendars

Some indices refer to calendars where example holiday data is not provided. These do no have a constant in HolidayCalendarIds and cannot be resolved without externally provided holiday data. These are listed below for completeness.
