Industry Identification Exercise: Australia
內容大綱
In this exercise, students are required to match eleven unidentified companies to the relevant industry group in which they operate, based on the Global Industry Classification Standards (GICS). Students are provided with a description of the eleven GICS and the financial information of the eleven companies. Each company is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). While the exercise has an Australian focus, international students should be able to correctly match the companies to their industry due to the generic nature of the industry characteristics.
