Foundations of banking excellence
Established in 2008, the Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN) is a collaborative initiative that has delivered a standard semantic service definition of banking that can be used as a blueprint for standardization of banking services, and rationalization of supporting IT software. It delivers a domain model that describes consistent service definitions and their boundaries that make up the services that describe banking. It contains a service view, an information view, and a capability view that together describe the banking landscape. The primary aim of BIAN is to provide a standard that makes integration of software and services capabilities easier through a standard set of definitions.
