Universal

The entities described in the Universal section of the schema are used in several places in the model. The entities defined here are linked to many different kinds of objects (for example Venue) or they are defining values that are not logically attached to one of the other sections of the model.

A Venue is a collection of Markets. It is a way of grouping markets into a single entity to represent an exchange or other market operator that is responsible for more than a single Market. Markets are grouped by Venue, each Market belonging to one Venue.
