Do you have GICs sector and industry data?

By Optuma Team · Updated 2021-03-16

We do not have GICs level data for individual stocks (unless you are an Enterprise Services client with a Bloomberg datafeed).

However, we do have four levels of GICs indices available with the US Indices data. Each level is a sub-set of the previous, and are available for S&P500, S&P600, and S&P1500 indices. Here’s an example for the S&P500 symbols and naming convention:

Level 1: Sector: eg SP500-45 for the Technology Index
Level 2: Industry group: eg SP500-4510 for Software & Services Index
Level 3: Industry: eg SP500-451030 for Software Index
Level 4: Sub-industry: eg SP500-45103010 for Application Software Index

Here’s a complete breakdown of the SP500-45 Technology sector:
