Concept

Organisations

Companies, funds and firms, with their name variants, industries and ownership links.

Name variants

The same company can appear under more than one name, for example Halberd Industrial Group and Halberd Industrial Group PLC. Each variant is its own record with its own reference. When a search returns several, pick the one with the most people and events attached, or check each.

Industries

Industries use GICS codes. A filter on a parent code matches its children, so 20 covers 2010 and 201010.

Parents and subsidiaries

Ownership links run both ways. get_company_ownerships returns the organisations that own a company and the organisations it owns, which for an asset manager usually means its funds.

Headcount and tracked people

An organisation can carry a recorded headcount. That's a separate figure from the number of profiles linked to it through work history. Expect the tracked number to be lower, since it counts only the people Chikara Intelligence holds a profile for.
