Subsidiaries are companies that are within the hierarchy of an organization. They are depicted in an organization’s Ratings Tree.
- Relationships are structured as a parent company and a subsidiary company (child).
- If you are the parent company, your subsidiary is a company in your Ratings Tree that is below your company.
- A subsidiary can be a parent of another subsidiary, which means some organizations may have multiple levels in their Ratings Tree.
