# Data model (core)

This section describes the data used for the Equity calculations, including how the data is structured.

For Equities, the **[Equity](./equity)** (Underlying) refers to the equity or equity issuer [MAR21.12](https://www.bis.org/basel_framework/chapter/MAR/21.htm?inforce=20230101\&published=20200327#paragraph_MAR_21_20230101_21_12)(1), see [interpretation note](../interpretation-note).

Each equity has an **Equity Name**, **Bucket**, **Economy**, **Market Cap**, and **Sector**.

The **[Risk Factor](./risk-factor)** is used to identify [sensitivities](./sensitivities).
However, it is not used directly in the calculations, instead the **Equity**, **Type**, and tenor fields are used (as appropriate for the risk-measure).
This means that multiple **Risk Factor Names** may be used for the same risk-factor.

Additionally, for each **Bucket** a canonical **Economy Category**, **Market Cap Category** and **Sector Category** are identified.
