The https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo/ontology/FBC/20180801/FunctionalEntities/EuropeanEntities/EUFinancialServicesEntities.rdf version of this ontology was revised to adjust the name of the CreditInstitutionOrInvestmentFirm classification to eliminate the 'or' in the name to address hygiene issues.
