Hello Everyone,
I tried looking for a similar problem on the forum, but couldn't really find anything that exactly matches. So here's the description of the issue we're facing.
I'm trying to query Financial Data for multiple Instruments in a single call. Our query looks like this:
df, err = get_data(instrument_id_list, financial_fields, parameters = {'SDate': 0, 'EDate': -9})
where
financial_fields = [ 'TR.CommonName', 'TR.Revenue', 'TR.GrossProfit', 'TR.EBITDA', 'TR.EBIT', 'TR.NetIncomeAfterTaxes', 'TR.TotalAssetsReported', 'TR.TotalLiabilities', 'TR.CashandEquivalents', 'TR.IsBSCompleteStatement', 'TR.IsISCompleteStatement', 'TR.OrganizationID', 'TR.TotalCurrLiabilities', 'TR.TotalCurrentAssets' ]
and instrument_id_list is a list of 25 or 50 Instruments.
Our issue could be described with the following points.
overview_fields = [ 'TR.CommonName', 'TR.BusinessSummary', 'TR.HeadquartersCountry', 'TR.OrganizationWebsite', 'TR.PrivateEquityBacked', 'TR.PCFullTimeEmployee(Period=FY0)', 'TR.PCTotRevenueFromBizActv(Period=FY0)' ] df, err = get_data(instrument_ids_list, overview_fields)
Any hint on why we're not able to retrieve financial data for private companies, would be immensely helpful.
Best,
Hardik
Hi @hardik.madhu, The data fields for private companies might be different from those of public companies. I used Data Item Browser (DIB) in Eikon and see lot of available financial fields for your instrument.
It is best to contact Refinitiv Helpdesk at my.refinitiv.com and raise a content query to clarify your questions.
