TOLNAICS

TOLNAICS is a classification system used to categorize industries and economic activities. It stands for the "Trade, Other, and Non-Agricultural Industries Classification System." Developed by the United Nations, TOLNAICS aims to provide a standardized framework for comparing economic data across different countries. The system is divided into four main sections: Trade, Other, Non-Agricultural Industries, and Non-Agricultural Services. Each section is further subdivided into divisions, groups, and classes, allowing for a detailed and hierarchical classification of economic activities. TOLNAICS is widely used by statisticians, economists, and policymakers for international comparisons, trade analysis, and economic research. It is particularly valuable for understanding the structure and performance of economies, as well as for identifying opportunities for trade and investment. The system is regularly updated to reflect changes in economic activities and to ensure its relevance and accuracy.
