Comments:

  • The country corresponds to the headquarter of the company. It does not mean that it is also the country where most of the revenue/profit is created. That is a topic for future analyses.
  • The category “unknown” is a mapping problem. This requires a better data quality process for mapping iShares holdings to an ISIN.
