Merger of Gardner Denver and Ingersoll-Rand not correctly handled
Hi Team,
The merger of Gardner Denver (5040060340) and Ingersoll-Rand (5000668795)
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ingersoll-rand-m-a-gardner-denver-hol-idUSKCN1S500F
has not been handled correctly which leads to the quote IR.N pointing to Gardner Denver instead of Ingersoll-Rand
The Reuters site shows the merger correctly:
https://www.reuters.com/companies/IR.N
Is this the best place to raise these types of issues?
Regards,
David

I have used entity search to query RIC:IR.N. I found that it randomly returns "Ingersoll Rand Inc" or "Gardner Denver Holdings Inc".

"@id": "https://permid.org/1-5040060340",
"organizationName": "Ingersoll Rand Inc",
"primaryTicker": "IR",

I will report this issue to the Open PermID support team.
