Hi Uday @,

You may use the Data Item Browser on your Refinitiv Workspace to look for fields for any one RIC. Doing so myself for HSBC - for example - I found the 'TR.DividendYield' field. As an example, you may want to use the bellow:


df, err = ek.get_data(['m_ric '], ['TR.F.DivPayoutRatioPct', 'TR.F.DivPayoutRatioPct.date', 'TR.DividendYield', 'TR.DividendYield.date'], {'ConsolBasis':'All', 'Frq':'FQ', 'SDate':'2010-12-31', 'EDate':'2020-10-26'})


Is that the field you were looking for?

Thanks!

Whats the difference between TR.F. & TR.

['TR.F.DivPayoutRatioPct', 'TR.F.DivPayoutRatioPct.date', 'TR.DividendYield', 'TR.DividendYield.date']

The 'F' there stands for 'Fundamentals'. TR.F.xxx field are the new fundamental data types, the same as Reuters Co. Fundamentals. You can find them in the Overview page's menu dropdown:
