Last updated in 2007, SIC codes are very out of date to say the least. Hundreds of new sectors will have been created in the last 15 years; none of which are accounted for by SIC. Despite this, they are the UK’s only official method of classification.
When a company is created they must choose at least one SIC code, up to four. This code must represent the company and what they do. This sounds fine in theory, but when the rapidly growing nature of the emerging economy is accounted for, many sectors of said economy are left out (particularly the newer ones). Not only this, but if a company changes what they do, the original SIC they chose will almost never get updated to reflect their new field.
If you’re interested, you can read more about why SIC codes don’t work.
This is the problem that our RTICs solve. They mean that no longer should companies not be accurately classified, and no longer should entire economic verticals be missing. Due to the real-time nature of RTICs, companies can be reclassified whenever is needed. If a company does not fit into an existing RTIC, then new RTICs can be made.
Sadly, SIC codes still serve a purpose. As I said, they are currently the only classification method of UK companies. Due to this, we are providing an SIC code lookup here on our website. If you would like more information about our RTIC classification structure, we’d love for you to get in touch.
