 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +A financial system processes information about financial activity, obligations, instruments, positions, events, controls, and oversight. In this document set, the term does not refer only to a banking application, a payment application, a trading platform, or an accounting system. It refers to any system that participates in the processing of structured financial information.
 +
 +A financial system may operate within a single institution, across multiple institutions, within a single jurisdiction, across jurisdictions, or in a distributed, node-based environment. The architecture, therefore, treats financial systems as information-processing systems that require traceability, interpretation, governance, evidence, and controlled release.
