===== Discussion =====

A Domain identifies a specific business or semantic area within an [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:e:ecosystem]]. It provides the classification level most directly associated with a domain profile.

Within the Monetary Ecosystem, a Domain may identify an area such as Foreign Exchange, Commercial Paper, Settlement, Liquidity, or another financial structured-information processing area.

A Domain provides the business and semantic scope inherited by later logical profiles, implementation profiles, deployment profiles, and evidence plans.
