From Open Risk Manual

Definition

International Securities Identification Number. A security identifier that is defined as specified in ISO 6166, Securities and related financial instruments -- International securities identification numbering system (ISIN)

The ISIN is specified as a class of identifiers because although there is a scheme associated with the structure of an ISIN, there are many country-specific variations issued by national numbering agencies.
