How can I call a full list of companies listed in one country (e.g., Australia) in a specific yea...

...r (e.g., 2005)?

I am using EIKON RnA with Datastream API add-on.


I need a full list of companies listed in a specific country (e.g., Australia) in a specific year (e.g., 2005 and 2006).

I heard that EIKON cannot do this, but it is possible with Datastream, but I do not know how to.

Thank you for the help in advance.

    Datastream supports Constituent Lists of instruments, e.g. LFTSE100, LS&PCOMP, LDAXINDX, LSTOKYOSE, etc. You can add MMYY after the symbol to get the historical constituent list, such as LFTSE1001219 for December 2019.

    You need to check if the Datastream provides a symbol for a list of companies listed in a specific country (e.g., Australia). You can access the Datastream navigator to search for symbols or directly contact the Refinitiv Datastream Web Service support team via MyRefinitiv to verify the required symbols.
