Banking and Insurance search tips:
In our databases Banking and Insurance may be classified under the broader Financial Services heading or may be broken down into narrower sub-sectors such as life and non-life insurance, commercial banking and investment banking.
Company databases may use SIC codes or NAIC codes and in the field of finance the GICS codes may be used (or an ICB for the UK). More information.
