In the Business Core Vocabulary the subcategories provide the main means by which a Data Steward can group the terms.
The subcategories in the Business Core Vocabulary can either group terms according to main data concepts (for example Product, Location) or according to relevant business specific topics (for example Risk & Compliance, Customer, and so on). Any terms in the Vocabulary can potentially have many referencing relationships to different categories within that Vocabulary.
| Industry | Category name | Description | Terms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cross Industry | Person | This business subject area groups all terms related to a human being, either alive or dead. |

| Energy and Utilities | Asset | A category that groups business terms that are concerned with how a piece of equipment is tracked, monitored or maintained. It does not represent a functional view of the asset on a network. |

| Insurance | Claim | This category area groups all terms related to Claim. This covers how requests for insurance benefits are represented, and how they are related to the aspects of the insurance business such as policies. It includes the structure of a claim (the splitting of a claim into smaller claims parts such as claim folder, elementary claim), the responsibilities of a claim (what the operations to be performed by a claim are (for example, claim offers and offer acceptance) and what information is to be included in a claim), and the relationships claims have with other related insurance or risk information. |
