下面是国际马术联合会的官方解释：
CSI是什么？
CSI全称Concours de Saut International（即国际马术比赛），是场地障碍马术比赛级别体制。所有CSI赛事均由马术运动的国际管理机构（FEI——国际马术联合会）许可。CSI赛事以星级划分，即难度越有挑战性，设立奖金越丰厚，那么星数则越多。
CSI赛事星级分为从一星到五星：
CSI*:奖金49999瑞郎或更低（约合人民币34万），障碍高度最高1.40m，参赛马匹至少6岁。
CSI2*:奖金5000到99999瑞郎（约合人民币34万到70万），障碍高度最高1.45m，参赛马匹至少6岁。
CSI3*:奖金100000到249999瑞郎（约合人民币70万到170万），参赛马匹至少7岁。
CSI4*:奖金250000到499999瑞郎（约合人民币170万到330万），参赛马匹至少7岁。
CSI5*:奖金500000瑞郎或更高（约合人民币330万），参赛马匹至少7岁。
此外，各项赛事所要求的行进路线中的速度和障碍高度设置也不同。如四星和五星比赛中行进速度需每分钟400米，三星赛则要求每分钟375米，而一星和二星赛需每分钟350米。但是所有室内赛的行进速度是每分钟350米。
