One-Stop Hub
Overall, Fincyclopedia is a one-stop platform for financial knowledge that uses a focused approach, as reflected in a compartmentalized or segmented pool of resources across multiple, distinct sections and sub-sections, each handling a specific area. This approach is meant to help users and learners identify their relevant areas of interest before digging deeper and fine-tuning toward desired results. For example, a given word (like abandonment) bears many meanings in different contexts such as business, banking, finance, derivatives, and insurance, to mention just a few.
The section-level alphabetical index and the built-in search function are designed to make search and comparison much easier. In “topics” section, the entire content of Fincyclopedia will be classified under main headings or root terms that enable the users to obtain a better perspective about common terms and their multiple uses across various contexts.
