Import Specification
Description
Name of the classification scheme to use when querying Norgate for each stock's sector and industry names
Choices
TRBC - use The Refinitive Business Classification
GICS - use the Global Industry Classification Standard
Notes
Four classification names are imported for each stock: ?EconSect, ?Sector, ?IndGroup, and ?Industry.
In each of the two schemes, the first four column values (see above links) are assigned to those names respectively.
As well as for display purposes, these names are used when calculating two-level rankings e.g. #Rank #ByIndGroup factor.
