| | ===== 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. |

| | ===== Definition ===== |
| | |
| | //system that processes financial information relating to financial obligations, financial events, financial instruments, financial positions, or financial oversight// |
| | |
| | ===== Source ===== |
| | |
| | Financial Systems Archetype, Part 1, Conceptual Architecture; generalised from the Financial-Domain Interpretation System Reference Architecture (FDIS-RA) and Structured Information Processing Reference Architecture (SIP-RA) treatment of governed financial information processing. |
| | |
| | ===== Note ===== |
| | |
| | A financial system includes institutional systems, market infrastructures, payment systems, settlement systems, regulatory reporting systems, supervisory systems, analytical systems, and distributed node-based systems that support financial information processing. |
| | |
| | ===== Example ===== |
| | |
| | A distributed foreign-exchange demonstration environment that validates transaction information, computes cash-flow obligations, records provenance, and produces authorized release products is a financial system. |
