Project Charter

The Financial Objects Project goal is to help drive adoption of new and existing Financial Object Standards across the Financial Services Industry by bringing together the creators of Financial Objects with the users of Financial Objects.

We will take a use case driven approach to the definition and creation of new Financial Object types and associated Projects to enable business workflows and connectivity using these financial objects.

Participation Requirements:

We request active participation through the contribution of your own use cases to allow collaboration and consensus towards financial object standards.

We aim to take contributions of established financial objects in active or planned workflows utilized within the financial services eco-system with the intention to converge towards a common structure of a financial object.

Active participants will be able to vote on the core structure of a financial object type to ensure ability to version, test and validate these financial objects in practice against their business use case and associated workflow. That workflow can be internal to internal, internal to external or across multiple internal and external party workflows.
