FAQQuestions

What is a BIAN service domain?

BIAN (the Banking Industry Architecture Network) decomposes a bank into independent service domains, each owning exactly one business capability. Financial Crime Models is the service domain for Financial Crime; it manages the Financial Crime Model Development Project and exposes it through standard BIAN action terms.

What business area does Financial Crime Models belong to?

Financial Crime Models sits in the Risk and Compliance business area — the risk, financial-crime and regulatory-compliance domains that keep the bank safe and compliant. It runs in the bian-risk-compliance namespace as one independent Spring Boot microservice.

Is Financial Crime Models production-ready?

It is an educational reference implementation: a real BIAN REST API over an in-memory store, ready to be filled with domain logic. It is not a live bank and is not affiliated with BIAN.
