Capitalised Terms in CUI-CPP V2.0 have the meaning defined in Table 1.
A dash “-” preceding a Term in Table 1 indicates the following readings according to the font:
- Normal font: the Term in the table without a dash and preceding the one with a dash should be read after that Term. For example, “Risk” and “- Assessment” will yield “Risk Assessment”.
- Italic font: the Term in the table without a dash and preceding the one with a dash should be read before that Term. For example, “Descriptor” and “- Financial” will yield “Financial Descriptors.”
All MPAI-specified Terms are defined online.
