Information Technology - Industry Sector

From the Collaborative Bond and Money Market Data Portal

 

The Information Technology Industry Sector consists of companies that provide consulting services (writing software, designing databases, data management, etc.) and business outsourcing processes. This sector is different from the Computer Hardware Industry Sector which consists of businesses that manufacture computer semiconductors and other components that make a computer.

The Industry Sector is a classification that describes the activity of an entity within the economy. The classification is based on where the relevant entity derives the majority of its revenue.

In the Collaborative Bond and Money Market Data Model the Information Technology Sector appears within the Industry Sector Type: Corporate.

CMDportal uses industry sector classifications both at the Legal Entity level, as well as at the Group level. At the Legal Entity level the entity is classified by their actual industry activity.

Accordingly, we classify a finance company that is part of an information technology corporation as a financial corporation at the entity level but at the group level as for example a “Corporate – Information Technology.”
