Three roles

Each role owns a different part of the asset lifecycle. Open a role guide for its responsibilities, operating workflow, and limits.

RoleResponsibility
Tokenization Validator (TV)Register and maintain the asset's protocol record
Scoring Validator (SV)Publish default probabilities and maintain their calibration
Insurance Validator (IV)Underwrite defined obligations and meet covered claims

An organization can hold more than one role. Each requires its own authorization and collateral account.

One identity, separate role accounts

A Business Validator identity, or BVID, links an operator address to a legal-entity reference and registered roles. Experience and offence history are associated with the BVID; collateral is accounted for separately for each role.

The legal-entity reference is an identifier. The contract does not independently verify incorporation documents or detect every duplicate legal entity. Admission and identity review therefore remain part of the operating process.

PermissionWhat it allows
BVID operatorAuthorized actions for the registered Business Validator roles
Token-suite owner or agentAsset-contract actions assigned by that suite
Network validatorParticipation in network consensus
Governance authorityChanges allowed by the protocol's governance and timelock controls

Holding one of these permissions does not confer the others.
