Overview

An SDMX Agency Scheme is a container for all Agencies and is a sub class of Organsiation Scheme.

The "top-level" agency is SDMX and this Agency Scheme is maintained by SDMX.

In the Registry, the SDMX Agency Scheme uses the prefix of SDMX and has The Identity of AGENCIES and the Name SDMX Agency Scheme. This will hold all the Agencies created in the Registry.

If a Sub Agency is created the prefix becomes the ID of the owning agency, with an ID of AGENCIES and the Name of AGENCIES as shown in the example below.
