Data

Official documents, from the source

Two bodies of documents behind one company record: what the national registry publishes about a company, and what a listed issuer publishes about itself. Both fetched from the original source rather than a reseller.

Two sources, one company record

Which source answers your question depends on whether the company is listed. Both hang off the same company record, so you do not have to know in advance.

Registry filings
What a company has filed with its national registry: annual accounts, articles of association, incorporation and amending acts, and statutory notices. Wired for eight of the thirteen markets — the registries that publish documents openly. The others expose data but not the underlying documents.
Issuer publications
What a listed issuer publishes for the market on its own investor-relations site: results releases, presentations, annual and interim reports, trading updates and regulatory filings. Collected continuously, content-addressed, so the same document is never stored twice.

What each source publishes

The document vocabulary on each side. What is actually available for a given company depends on its registry and on what it has filed.

From the registry
  • Annual accounts
  • Articles of association
  • Incorporation acts
  • Amending acts
  • Officer changes
  • Statutory notices
From the issuer
  • Results release
  • Results presentation
  • Annual report
  • Interim report
  • Trading update
  • Regulatory filing

Documents are not always PDF: some registries publish structured accounts as XBRL or xHTML, and those are served in their original format rather than flattened.

Method

How a document reaches you

Nothing is scraped speculatively. A document is fetched when it is asked for, then kept so the next request is immediate.

  1. 01

    Identify the company

    Start from the company record you already have — registry identifier, or ticker for a listed issuer. No separate document search to reconcile.

  2. 02

    List what exists

    The available documents are read from the registry or the issuer site on demand, and the list is cached so repeat views cost nothing.

  3. 03

    Retrieve the file

    The document itself is fetched once, stored, and served from then on — in the format the source published, with its content type preserved.

Access

Available through the API

Issuer documents are queryable and downloadable over the public API, so the documents behind a claim can travel into your own system alongside the data.
