# S&P Global: Competitors & Industry Structure

## Direct Answer

SEC EDGAR classifies S&P Global under SIC code 7320 (Services-Consumer Credit Reporting, Collection Agencies). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 2 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, S&P Global ranks 1 of 3. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes.

## How Does S&P Global Compare With Its Peers?

| Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **S&P Global (SPGI)** | $15.3 billion FY2025 | 7.9% | 42.2% | 29.2% |
| [Equifax (EFX)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/equifax/) | $6.1 billion FY2025 | 6.9% | 18.0% | 10.9% |
| [TransUnion (TRU)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/transunion/) | $4.6 billion FY2025 | 9.4% | 18.7% | 10.0% |

Revenue growth compares each company's latest fiscal year with the one before. Fiscal years do not always end on the same date, so treat close comparisons with care.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value S&P Global reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0000064040-26-000013 for fiscal year 2025). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 12, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary.

Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
