FSDM should be considered in business context, rather then technical. FSDM is fully comprehensive business taxonomy (business terms, definiyions, classification) that can be used for various pourposes (e.g. business requirement definition, logical data model design, data quality initiatives, etc.). Hope it would help.

In my understanding the FSDM contains of just a few superclass entities and very basic association tables. An association combines one entry of superclass A to one entry of superclass B.
Having only a handful of superclasses results in very few associations, right?

But how are associations made which should combine more than two superclasses, and maybe have their own attributes?

Hi,

Has anyone used the Financial Services Data Model (FSDM) published by IBM, particularly the Data Warehouse component( Table level details)?

How did you use it? What are the tables are there in each Data concepts

I would be interested in hearing from anyone about the table level details or where can i get the details.

Thanks,

Maha

Thanks

Thanks Bojan,

Good overview. I like it.

We did something similar for a client (unfortunately I am not free to share it), using internal terminology and systems to make it more understandable.

Very good, Bojan.

Looks better than the original (IBM's FSDM) Diagram.

Thanks Conor. I will make a correction.

Hi Bojan, just had a look at your lovely new FSDM chart. Very nice. I think there is a type in the Resource Item description. The sentence .... includes and describes "AND" value item.... i think this should be "a" . Tiny thing but i thought you would like to know. regards Conor.

RESOURCE ITEM data concept Includes and describes and value item,
either tangible or intangible, that is owned, managed, used by or of
specic interest to the nancial services organization in pursuit and
accomplishment of its business.
