@Tyler, I think he want to replace the first line with a new line.

Code:
awk 'NR==1{$1="Counter Number, Counterparty1, Counterparty2"}1' output.csv > tempfile && mv tempfile output.csv

If your sed version supports the -i option:
Code:
sed -i '1 s/.*/Counter Number, Counterparty1, Counterparty2/' output.csv

otherwise:
Code:
sed '1 s/.*/Counter Number, Counterparty1, Counterparty2/' output.csv  > tempfile && mv tempfile output.csv
