4.2.2 Product Processor Entities

The classification of financial products based on their processor categories and catalog entities is crucial for organizing and managing data within financial systems. This systematic approach categorizes various financial instruments and contracts across different domains, ensuring accuracy and consistency. By organizing products into distinct categories such as assets, derivatives, liabilities, and off-balance sheet assets, this classification helps improve data accuracy, ensure regulatory compliance, and streamline reporting. Examples of such classifications include assets like loan contracts, overdraft accounts, and investments; derivatives like credit derivatives, swaps, and options; liabilities such as term deposits and borrowings; and off-balance sheet assets like commitments and letters of credit. This structured framework supports consistent product processing, facilitates seamless integration across financial systems, and ensures clarity in the representation of financial data.

Some of the core products of banking are:
  • Loan Contracts
  • Term Deposits
  • Option Contracts
  • Letter of Credit
