Research Governance

Financial intelligence needs clear authority, evidence, and boundaries.

Madison MFI is being built as a specialized financial-intelligence domain inside Penny's governed architecture. That means research capability expands without silently expanding into execution authority.

1

Domain authority

Madison owns its registered financial research and analysis decision types while Penny Core retains platform orchestration and governance responsibilities.

2

Provenance

Externally sourced financial facts are intended to carry source, provider, identifiers, timestamps, freshness, and lineage metadata.

3

Source authority

When time-sensitive numerical facts conflict, stronger structured sources can be prioritized through explicit rules rather than arbitrary selection.

4

Replay & review

Research and runtime structures are designed so important decisions and assessments can be inspected, correlated, and reviewed.

5

Human responsibility

MFI supports research and interpretation. Users remain responsible for investment decisions and for obtaining qualified professional advice when appropriate.

6

No execution expansion

The current roadmap does not add trade execution, brokerage authority, or an autonomous trading engine simply because research coverage expands.

Current product boundary

Research-only through the current planned roadmap.

The MFI roadmap identifies its planned scope through MFI-105 as research-only. Early phases explicitly state that market-data providers, quantitative engines, and trade execution are not introduced merely by expanding Madison's financial research authority.
