I glanced, and I found this handbook shallow and - in some areas - even bad advice.
E.g. If I ever see a monetary value stored in something else than integers I'm going to run away screaming (thank you Rust decimals represented as JSON floats). It's always integers unless you have a VERY good reason to do otherwise (though exported view can be in anything, even in weird bitcoded formats).
FX exchange. Resolution of FX isn't a point-in-time thing, things like buyer rate-in-time, seller rate-in-time, agreement, agreement tolerance, agreed upon resolution timestamp come in the effect.
Immutability - that's why you want to have event sourcing everywhere that touches money:
# Resolved stream
A -> B -> E
# Actual stream
A0 -> Edit(A0, A) -> B -> C -> D -> Rollback(B) -> E
Though in the end Fintech != Fintech. I worked at Fintech where money was treated like a baggage, and in other where money was a central point of everything.
