]> Business Registries Ontology This ontology extends the Registration Authorities ontology to define specific kinds of registries, such as business entity registries, registries for identifiers and codes of various sorts, and registries for financial institutions and intermediaries based on jurisdiction, who regulates them, and the services they provide. https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20150801/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was modified per the issue resolutions identified in the FIBO FBC 1.1 RTF report. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20160801/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was modified per FIBO 2.0 RFC primarily to loosen the constraints on address properties and better support standards including ISO 9362 (BIC codes), ISO 13616 (IBAN and BBAN codes), and ISO 17442 (the GLIEF LEI standard). The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20180801/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was modified to generalize certain unions where they were no longer required, use the composite date datatype where appropriate, add individuals for entity expiration reason and validation level to better align with the GLEIF LEI data, and move international registration authorities, such as SWIFT, to a separate ontology for better modularity. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20190501/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to replace hasDefinition with isDefinedIn to clarify intent. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20190701/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to eliminate deprecated elements. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20190901/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to eliminate duplication with concepts in LCC, simplify addresses, normalize definitions to be ISO 704 compliant, and rationalize address properties. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20200301/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to replace uses of hasTag in Relations with hasTag from LCC, as the more complex union of datatypes in the Relations concept is not needed here. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20200701/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to eliminate circular and ambiguous definitions. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20210201/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to reflect the move of certain organization-specific concepts from BE to FND. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20210901/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to clarify the definition of registry identifier and augment the definitions of certain identifiers, such as an LEI, to make them registry identifiers, as well as to modify the definition of an LOU to be a Registrar rather than RegistrationAuthority, and deprecate the redundant LOU identifier. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20211201/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to eliminate deprecated content. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20220501/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was revised to eliminate dead links and address text formatting issues uncovered by hygiene testing. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20220801/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of the ontology was modified to use the Commons Ontology Library (Commons) Annotation Vocabulary rather than the OMG's Specification Metadata vocabulary and refine the definitions of certain date properties to allow for broader usage, such as for market-related content. The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20230101/FunctionalEntities/BusinessRegistries.rdf version of this ontology was modified to use the Commons Ontology Library (Commons) rather than the OMG's Languages, Countries and Codes (LCC) and to eliminate redundancies in FIBO as appropriate.

NAICS was developed under the auspices of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and adopted in 1997 to replace the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. It was developed jointly by the U.S. Economic Classification Policy Committee (ECPC), Statistics Canada and Mexico's Instituto Nacional Estadistica y Geografia, to allow for a high level of comparability in business statistics among the North American countries. pending archival status status indicating that the registration is about to be transferred to a different registration authority, after which its registration status will revert to a non-pending status PENDING_ARCHIVAL https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 pending transfer status status indicating that the registration has requested transfer to a different registration authority, and for which transfer is in progress PENDING_TRANSFER https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 pending validation status status indicating that an application for registration has been submitted and is in process, pending validation PENDING_VALIDATION https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 1 registration authority code identifier that uniquely identifies a business registry, and is associated with a registration authority and jurisdiction, issued by the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/gleif-registration-authorities-list registration status lifecycle stage indicating the status of a given registration of something, such as a business or legal entity, as specified by the registration authority https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 There may be other possible values for registration status, depending on the registry, thus the individuals provided herein are not intended to be exhaustive. retired status status indicating that the registration is for an entity that has ceased operation, without having been merged into another entity RETIRED https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 1 1 standard industrial classification code the SIC code representing an industry SIC code standard industrial classification scheme the scheme defining the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code List Standard Industrial Classifications are four-digit codes that categorize companies by the type of business activities they engage in. These codes were created by the U.S. government in 1937 to facilitate analysis of economic activity across government agencies and within industries. They were mostly replaced in 1997 by a new system of six-digit codes called the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The new codes were adopted in part to standardize industry data collection and analysis in between Canada, the United States and Mexico which had entered into the North American Free Trade Agreement. Note that certain organizations, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) still use SIC codes for some purposes. transferred status status indicating that the registration that has been transferred to a different registration authority TRANSFERRED https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has alternative language legal name denotes a registered legal name for the entity in an alternative language used in the legal jurisdiction in which the entity is registered https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has automatically transliterated legal name denotes an auto-generated ASCII-transliterated representation of the legal name for the entity https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has entity expiration date indicates the date on which an entity ceases(d) to exist https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has entity expiration reason indicates the reason that an entity ceased to exist (i.e., disolved, merged with another entity, etc.) https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has entity status indicates the status of the entity (i.e., active, inactive) https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has expiry date indicates the date on which something ceases(d) to exist https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has initial registration date indicates the date on which an identifier or other registered item was created and/or first registered https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has preferred transliterated legal name denotes a preferred ASCII-transliterated representation of the legal name for the entity https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has prior legal name denotes a primary legal name that was used previously for the entity https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has registration status revision date indicates the date that the status of a specific registration in the registry was revised https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has registration status indicates the status of a specific registration, such as for an identifier or license true has registry name denotes a name for the registry, for example, for a business registry in which a business registration identifier for the legal entity is registered https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has renewal date indicates the date by which a specific registration in the registry must be renewed or updated https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 https://www.swift.com/standards/data-standards/bic?tl=en#BICPolicyandDatarecord This property is equivalent to the date of expiry in some registries, such as the BIC registry. has trading or operational name denotes a 'trading as', 'brand name', 'doing business as', or 'operating under' name currently used by the entity in addition to, but not replacing, the (primary) legal, official registered name https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has transliterated legal name denotes an optional ASCII-transliterated (i.e. Latin- or Romanized) representation of the legal name for the entity https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has validation authority identifies the business registration authority for the legal entity, used by the Local Operating Unit (LOU) as the basis for validation, as defined in the GLEIF Registration Authorities List https://www.gleif.org/en/about-lei/common-data-file-format/lei-cdf-format/lei-cdf-format-version-2-1 has validation date indicates the date that a specific registration in the registry was most recently reviewed and validated https://www.swift.com/standards/data-standards/bic?tl=en#BICPolicyandDatarecord has validation level indicates the level of validation performed by the registrar with respect to the legal entity is self-maintained indicates whether the information about the entity is maintained internally or by a third-party https://www.swift.com/standards/data-standards/bic?tl=en#BICPolicyandDatarecord 0 0
