Bond issuers income statement data download

Hello everyone,

I am trying to download financial information regarding bond issuers, starting from a series of bond ISIN codes.

The query I am using is the following:

rd.get_data(
universe = ISIN_list,
fields = [
'TR.RIC','TR.NACEClassification',
"TR.DTSubjectName",
"TR.FIIssuerName",
'TR.FiOrgID',
"TR.F.TotRevenue",
"TR.F.TotAssets",
"TR.F.EBITDA",
"TR.F.MktCap",
"TR.F.EV",
"TR.F.TotDebtPctofTotAssets",
"TR.F.TotDebtPctofTotEq",
"TR.F.IntrCovRatio",
"TR.TotalAssetsActual.periodenddate"
]
)

I get many missing values for the financial variables (such as "TR.F.TotRevenue"), whereas I checked that for some issuers that information is instead available when searching the company name via the workspace search bar (for instance the ISIN "XS2552369469" issued by "REDEIA CORPORACION SA" has a 'NA' value for the TotRevenue variable using the get_data function, while if I look for that company in the search bar I can easily find that information).


I have also tried to retrieve the RIC code first and then use another get_data() to retrieve financial information but I encountered the same problem.


Could you help me?

thanks

  • Hi @Giacomo_C

    Using the DIB, I found the issuer-company related field "TR.EUTaxTotalRevenue"; is this the one you are after?
    If not, have you tried looking for a populated field on the DIB usiong hte filter?

  • Hi Jonathan, thank you for the answer.
    Indeed, using this field I was able to retrieve values that are missing for "TR.F.TotRevenue".
    Do you know how I can also find populated fields for the other economic and financial variables I am looking for? (Total assets, EBITDA, number of employees, enterprise value, market capitalization)
    Also, how do I get the year this field refers to?

    thanks again
