The BIAN Service Landscape 1.0

This document describes a result of BIAN standardization efforts and describes one specific structure which results from identifying and hierarchically grouping consistent sets of banking capabilities and responsibilities. Other structures are equally possible and might be needed to serve different needs. The applied organization principle is based on IT-application needs. As IT-Applications are very close to business needs we strived for a result that is acceptable and understandable for a business audience, whereas the major concerns addressed are requirements coming from IT.
