Revere International Sector Classification (RISC™) ::
Revere International Sector Classification, or RISC™, is a comprehensive industry classification system that can identify clusters of related companies that are frequently overlooked by other classification systems.
RISC™ is unique because it identifies not only a company's focused sectors (those from which it derives most of its revenues), but also every industry sub-sector in which the company participates. By mapping the sectors that generate core revenue along with ancillary sectors, RISC™ provides unprecedented visibility in the competitive landscape and helps assess true portfolio risk.
RISC™ is directly linked to and based on the patented Revere Hierarchy™, our product-based classification system that maps companies against over 16,000 product and service categories. Together, the Revere Hierarchy™ and RISC™ provide in-depth and precise visibility into over 1,200 industry sectors, almost ten times as many as are visible in conventional systems.
