Add my vote for ICB support.

 

Indexed/keyed access to industries, sectors ... etc. would also be a lot better than the current relative record number system.

Excellent news!

 

Don?t forget about the other major classification standard too ? Industry Classification Benchmark from Dow Jones/FTSE ? quite similar to that of GICS in terms of it being 4 levels and also numerical like GICS (although it?s a 4 digit identifier ? note that some start with zero so it?s not really an integer but could be displayed as a  zero padded int).

See the appendices at:

http://www.icbenchmark.com/docs/ProductSpec_04_2007_V2.pdf

for the numeric code descriptions.

Also, Yahoo seems to use their own classifications which I think is based upon Hemscott ? but there never seems to be any recognised indexes based upon the Hemscott/Yahoo classifications.

For what is worth - support for GICS is planned.
