## Use Case Example {#use-case-example}

The [Retrieve a Subsidiary](https://developer.mastercard.com/riskrecon-api/documentation/use-cases/portfolio-management/subsidiaries/retrve-subs-toe/index.md#retrieve-a-subsidiary) use case discusses how you can use the `GET Subsidiaries` endpoint to retrieve all the subsidiaries associated with a TOE.

### Retrieve a Subsidiary {#retrieve-a-subsidiary}

A vendor's RiskRecon rating will consider all the systems attributed to the vendor, including any systems belonging to the vendor's subsidiaries. A RiskRecon customer is interested in how risk is distributed across a vendor's subsidiaries. The customer can use the subsidiary endpoint to retrieve a collection of the vendor's subsidiaries. Using the TOE ID's in this collection, the user can add the subsidiaries to their portfolio through a `POST TOE` request and then subsequently retrieve RiskRecon data specific to each subsidiary.
