finance_relation

A person's financial position: the assets and debts attached to them, each as its own reference.

Finance_relation contains information about financial assets and debts related to a person.

Why it matters

One person, and references to a property, a mortgage, a loan, a lease, a rent, an automobile, an insurance policy and a tax record, plus a stage value, a feedback value and a main-applicant indicator.

Every item is a reference rather than an embedded field, which is what keeps the class from becoming a wide record that has to be widened again for the next kind of asset. A new asset type is a new class and one more relationship, not a schema change on every consumer.

In practice

The stage value is what makes the record readable mid-application: a position gathered so far is a valid position, not an incomplete one.
