The 5 standards listed for finance, insurance and capital markets in the subsite registry, each with its status, UNI (Unique Nexus Identifier) and the rules its text states. Every standard here is proposed: drafted and applied by consumers, not adopted by an authority. A UNI identifies and resolves; it never certifies truth, readiness or approval. Names of standards bodies and their standards belong to their stewards and are used only to identify the documents; no text of an external standard is reproduced here.
Status proposed · owner trust · NXS-STD-ST-000004
| Rule | Text |
|---|---|
NS0-P1 | Open · The standards, their registries, schemas, catalogs and reference tools are published in the canonical repository under a licence recorded by counsel; participation in development is open to every community and stakeholder under GOVERNANCE.md; no standard depends on a proprietary artifact to be applied. |
NS0-P2 | Machine-readable first · Every normative element exists as data (registry, schema, clause) before it exists as prose; prose explains, data governs. A standard with no machine form is not a Nexus Standard. |
NS0-P3 | Identified · Every artifact, record, deployment, policy and clause carries a UNI (NS-1, NS-3, NS-9). Nothing is cited by a name alone. |
NS0-P4 | Verified, not asserted · Conformance is a claim with evidence: receipts, digests, signed attestations and observations (NS-11). A claim without evidence is recorded as a claim, never as a fact; the claim ceiling of the consumer bounds every statement. |
NS0-P5 | Zero trust · Authenticated is not authorized; entitled is not authorized; deny by default. Every verification, monitoring and enforcement path assumes no implicit trust between systems, tenants, sites or agents, and records who verified what under which mandate. |
NS0-P6 | Real-time · Standards express obligations that can be evaluated continuously against live records (observations, releases, corrections, deployments), and the standards themselves are versioned so a consumer can state exactly which version it conforms to at any instant. |
NS0-P7 | Provenance everywhere · Every artifact records what it was derived from, who produced it, under which release and policy decision, and what corrected it (NS-3b PROV-O profile). Corrections supersede; nothing is silently rewritten. |
NS0-P8 | Honest · A UNI identifies and resolves; it never certifies. legalState defaults to review-required; readiness, approval and production status are never implied by a standard, a status, a page or a badge. |
NS0-P9 | Nexus-aware · Standards address cross-domain interdependence (water, energy, food, health, biodiversity, climate and the sectors they touch) explicitly: an obligation can reference artifacts in another domain, and cascades are first-class. |
NS0-P10 | Names are governed · Codes are never names. Public names follow the name architecture standard; a system or component is shown by its neutral display name and its UNI, which may change with context (NS-9) while the name does not infringe anyone's mark. |
NS0-P11 | Community-owned development · Proposals, comments, decisions and versions of every standard are themselves artifacts with UNIs; the development process is specified (NS-13) and open; authority to adopt is recorded, never assumed. |
NS0-P12 | Fail closed · Missing evidence, missing legal state, missing policy decision or unavailable verification is a refusal with a typed reason, never a pass. |

| Rule | Text |
|---|---|
NS9-R1 | One context record per deployment or programme instance; the concept keeps its own UNI; context.ofUni is required and must resolve. |
NS9-R2 | Context identifiers are allocated by the catalog for their SCOPE, never derived from names or typed by hand. |
NS9-R3 | A context's claim ceiling, legal state and conformance evidence are its own; they are never inherited from the concept or from another context. |
NS9-R4 | Closing a context never deletes it; context.validUntil is set and the status becomes WITHDRAWN or SUPERSEDED with supersededBy. |
NS9-R5 | Display names in context follow the name architecture standard; the UNI, not the name, is the key everywhere. |

| Rule | Text |
|---|---|
NS10-R1 | Every obligation enforced anywhere in the ecosystem is a clause with a UNI; no hidden rule in code without a clause record (the code may implement it, the clause names it). |
NS10-R2 | Subjects are contextual UNIs; names, labels or free text never bind. |
NS10-R3 | The predicate is data in a declared language; evaluators record engine and version; the same clause evaluated by two conformant evaluators yields the same result for the same inputs. |
NS10-R4 | External obligations are cited, never copied. |
NS10-R5 | Failure effects are typed; refuse is the default for blocking clauses in production contexts. |
NS10-R6 | A clause or policy with legalState other than APPROVED may be evaluated but its results are displayed as claims under review. |
NS10-R7 | Policies and clauses are append-only artifacts: withdrawal and supersession keep the record. |
Status proposed · owner trust · NXS-STD-ST-000007
| Rule | Text |
|---|---|
NS11-R1 | No conformance statement without an attestation; no attestation without an evaluator, a mandate, evidence references and a digest. |
NS11-R2 | Zero trust: subject and evaluator are distinct; production evaluations run outside the subject's trust boundary. |
NS11-R3 | Missing or unresolvable evidence is INDETERMINATE or REFUSED, never PASS (NS0-P12). |
NS11-R4 | Attestations are append-only and supersede; monitoring records are observations with record UNIs. |
NS11-R5 | Every displayed conformance value carries its evaluation instant and evaluator; projections never store verdicts. |
NS11-R6 | Exports to Verifiable Credentials, in-toto or PROV-O are crosswalks; the Nexus attestation is the record of truth. |

|---|---|
NS14-R1 | No reproduction of external standard text; cite by identifier, clause number and URL. |
NS14-R2 | Relation claims come from the register and clause sets, never from prose. |
NS14-R3 | "Compliant" and "certified" appear only as quotations of an authority decision by reference. |
NS14-R4 | Marks of standards bodies are never part of a Nexus name. |
NS14-R5 | Unverified register entries are displayed as unverified. |
Risk Academy disciplines that teach Finance, insurance and capital markets, with their courses; the GCRI Canada, The Global Risks Forum (GRF) and The Global Risks Alliance (GRA) subsites that carry those disciplines; and the Nexus Foundry systems the standards name. Mappings are proposed for review (Risk Academy standards map, 2026-10-17); a link says a page on the same subject exists, never an endorsement or a conformance statement; framework names in course titles are named and linked, never reproduced.
Every standard here is proposed. Changes enter as proposals under NS-13; conformance is shown by attestations under NS-11; nothing on this site is a certification, an approval or a readiness statement.
