Additionally, pricing tables now support multiple modifiers to add or subtract all pricing table types (interest, rate factor, and residual tables). Our clients can build a primary rate table (ex. for the margin/base rate) and one or more modifier tables to add/subtract to the primary rate (ex. for a cost of funds).
