This is essentially a long dictionary definition with some arbitrary examples, some of which are quite imprecise (ie, a bank account isn't inherently a "financial transaction" in and of itself). Unsourced for a decade, largely original research. Lots of pages link here, so maybe this should redirect to a better, more appropriate article? ZimZalaBim ^talk 01:17, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
