Italian term

flusso di importi

Italian to English Bus/Financial Investment / Securities
The term is part of a syllabus for financial mathematics. The exact context is:
Indici temporali e di variabilità di un flusso di importi.

This follows a few brief sentences about interest rate term structures and bonds. Try as I will I just can't find the right words for 'flusso di importi' - I've not worked out the rest of the sentence either but am thinking along the lines of time index and variable index.

Any help gratefully received!

payment flows

Importo is usually amount. I have found importi used for payments in Liguee at, http://www.linguee.com/english-italian/search?source=auto&qu... so it is an imaginative way of saying 'cash flows', which is another option because in finance it is either money in or money out. It isn't rocket science. Italian is always a challenge to translate.
Note from asker:
I thought about cash flows as a possible solution but couldn't find much in the way of confirmation of the phrase being used in the context of bonds, time index and variable index. I was wondering whether it was instead being used in some different way!
