FinanceMind AI owns the primary diagnostic relationship.

FinanceMind AI owns KPI interpretation when value or exposure is involved; GovernanceMind AI preserves evidence boundaries.

Scope boundary

Product boundary: The term does not certify KPI accuracy or create benchmark claims.

The glossary defines terminology. It does not convert a term into a benchmark result, customer finding, or operational instruction.

Related action

Use the term only after checking the evidence route and product boundary.

Glossary pages are reference entries. They support diagnostic evaluation, but the operating decision still depends on source data, confidence tiers, and accountable owner review.
