What Sector Classification system is google using?
At first I assumed it was GICS, but when I tried to build a Vlookup in
a spreadsheet I realized it's not.

The GICS structure consists of 10 sectors, 24 industry groups, 68
industries and 154 sub-industries
Google Finance clearly defines 12 sectors. Help function didn't seem
to point to the answer.

Appreciate any help.
