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 a trading corporation as a financial corporation at the entity level but at the group level as for example a “Corporate – Trading.”
