Issues Descriptions

The current definition of LegalEntity should really be LEICapableEntity

  • Key: FIBOBE12-3
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    In the LegalPersons ontology, the LegalEntity concept is defined as something that fulfills the requirement for an LEI-capable entity. The concept should be retained, but moved to the LEIEntities ontology and renamed LEICapableEntity,

The definition of NaturalPerson in the LegalPersons ontology is inadequate for banking needs

  • Key: FIBOBE12-2
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall)
  • Summary:

    Based on review by several bankers and attorneys, the notion of a natural person as currently captured in BE is too broad for legal purposes, and what is actually needed is a narrower definition of legally capable person. A legally capable person is either a legally capable adult or emancipated minor as defined in some jurisdiction.

    The definition of legally capable adult already exists in FND, but here we need to augment that definition to make the connection to a jurisdiction and to make it a child of LegalPerson in the context of BE.

Need better modeling of legal forms

  • Key: FIBOBE12-1
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    At the moment all we have is &fibo-be-corp-corp;hasLegalFormAbbreviation of type text.
    The legal form should be a class in its own right with abbreviation as one of many properties (or a label), including the jurisidiction/country where it's used and some annotations describing the legal aspects. It should also be related to some of the standard classes such as IncorporatedCompany.
