Hi
I would like to retrieve historic data such as total net assets and returns on the entire universe of mutual funds, ideally with Python. Is this possible and if so what is the ideal way (e.g., eikon or refinitiv dataplaform)?
@ErikM , The Eikon API only supports fund data retrieval by asset ID. It does not support bulk download for all data. Your requirements sounds like you want to download the entire Lipper funds database. This is not supported. The Lipper Global Data Feed (LGDF) service maybe provide the data closer to your needs. Please talk to your a/c manager for details. If you are staff of Refinitiv or LESG, please talk to the Lipper Products team.
@b.lee, would it make a difference if it was not the entire funds database but a subsample such as all funds for a certain country or do I understand correctly that retrieval is only possible for single asset IDs?
