How to read SIC 70221

A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 70221 is the company's own description of what it does, and 15,241 list it first where 21,535 list it anywhere.

About SIC 70221
How many UK companies use SIC code 70221?
21,535 active UK companies list 70221 (Financial management) among their registered SIC codes. Each company may register up to four. Of those, 15,241 put it first. The figures come from the August 2026 Companies House register snapshot, and count active companies only.
Why do so many contractors register under SIC code 70229?
It is broad enough to cover almost any professional advisory work. That made it the default for interim managers and consultants setting up personal service companies. Nobody vets it. The code is simply what the director declared at incorporation or on a confirmation statement. That breadth is also why a list built on 70229 alone mixes real consultancies with individual contractors from every industry.
