A Brief Explanation of BIAN
A common industry ‘blueprint’ allows participants to specialise in different
components. The industry can collectively assemble far more sophisticated products
than any one provider could hope to develop alone.
Once an industry is componentised it can adapt to change and leverage new
opportunities far more efficiently and effectively…
BIAN Defines the Standard Components for Banking...
It’s all About Componentization
Market forces drive an industry to componentise…
Manufacturing:
The Auto Industry…
…defines the different parts
that are assembled in a car
Change: Electronics
Media:

…agrees specialist roles

A Brief Explanation of BIAN
BIAN’s component model view of banking defines discrete responsibilities. A
responsibility represents the need to “do something to something” to benefit the bank…
By cataloging the types of resources and the different commercialization approaches
BIAN has isolated a comprehensive collection of Service Domain ‘components’
BIAN Components are Canonical - they define“What” Vs “How”
It’s all About Componentization
BIAN ‘components’ are called Service Domains…
… in order to
create commercial
value.

BIAN Service Landscape
Service Domain properties:
◆ a discrete business capability (not a process step)
◆ peer collection covers all business activity (elemental)
◆ acts as an operational service center
◆ can combine people, procedures & systems
◆ capable of being outsourced (one ‘sizing’ test)
◆ does ‘something’ to ‘something’ for the full life-cycle
◆ handle single or multiple instances for a short or long life-span

Integrating BIAN & ACTUS
The ACTUS specifications are mapped to the BIAN Service Domains…
There are two key ways that the contract terms in the ACTUS Data
Dictionary are related to the BIAN Service Domains:
1. Financial Contract Model - For Service Domains that handle transaction
execution and facility fulfillment, an ACTUS ‘algorithmic’ financial contract is
created for each contract instance (as a Behavior Qualifier)
2. Consolidation & Analysis - For Service Domains that support analysis a feature
is provided to map underlying ACTUS financial contracts to products from
multiple sources for the purpose of performing a wide range of analyses of the
consolidated products, including projecting future cash flows

The party reference can be mapped directly – the

should define a new data type in anticipation

Need to ensure the fee attribute maps cleanly as defined

Need to define structured interest attribute data type and
ensure BIAN attributes can be mapped consistently

should define a new data type in anticipation
Defines the complex array of parameters that define the
properties and cash-flow behaviors of the instrument ❑ Principal
We currently define aa simple principal attribute – this
defines the foundational ‘algorithmic data’ properties…
Defines miscellaneous product configuration options ❑ Product ConfigurationWe need to partition general product configuration to
have counterparty, product options & settlement options

Extended Model to Consider Enterprise Views
The combination of the BIAN framework and ACTUS financial contract standard
The initial scope to show how BIAN and ACTUS combine for an investment portfolio can be extended to
support far more extensive enterprise-wide perspectives:
❑ Maintain comprehensive views of the bank’s consolidated exposure to major clients, markets and
product types
❑ Support the bank’s overall portfolio risk analysis breaking down the sensitivity to factors such as
segment performance, currency, rate, credit quality etc.
❑ Support a broad range of consistent and more efficient accounting, tax and regulatory reporting
requirements
❑ Improve the bank’s compliance/risk management profile by demonstrating the improved control and
integrity of its internal banking processes
❑ Enable strategic decision support for the enterprise by senior management by consolidating
multiple business divisions and products in a unified representation of the balance sheet at the
account level that can be consistently analyzed and viewed with forward-looking projections of the
total contractual commitments of the bank.
❑ Can do so in a way that is “non-invasive” -- i.e., without disturbing the existing ‘plumbing’ of the
operational IT infrastructure of the bank and its business units – and which can be refreshed as
frequently as desired.
❑ Can combine the transaction processing of operational systems and payments with forward-looking
analytical capabilities using the same financial contract data.

Rapid Phased Prototyping (RPP)
“The FDIC is excited to launch the Rapid Phased Prototyping
(RPP) program as an opportunity to engage with companies in
an intentional, innovative, and insightful way to deliver cutting-
edge capabilities for the FDIC and its member banks. RPP’s
innovative approach allows the FDIC and awardees to rapidly
and collaboratively co-create solutions, moving from initial
concept paper to final prototype in less than five months.”

ACTUS Financial Research Foundation’s concept supports the
FDIC by demonstrating how the ACTUS open standards provide a
unique opportunity to efficiently collect, consolidate, and analyze
timely financial contract data of bank assets and liabilities. The
ACTUS open-source software algorithms use the ACTUS-defined
contract data in combination with external risk factor models to
generate forward-looking cash flows that allow anyone to quickly
develop and deploy enterprise or systemic risk management
solutions
