SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Databento—one of
the fastest-growing companies in the financial data space—announced
today the release of corporate actions data and its suite of
reference data APIs.
Corporate actions cover current and upcoming company events that
affect security prices and listing statuses. The dataset offers six
years of point-in-time history and global coverage from 215
exchanges worldwide, featuring over 310,000 listed and delisted
stocks, ETPs, DRs, bonds, and other types of securities from more
than 85,000 issuers and companies. Over 60 different types of
corporate events are included, such as dividends, splits, mergers
and acquisitions, new listings, and more.
Since its public launch one year ago, Databento has seen
significant growth, becoming a licensed distributor of market data
from over 40 exchanges and growing to over 6,000 users while
maintaining 137% revenue growth in the last two quarters. This
release expands Databento's coverage and diversifies it beyond
pricing data.
"Corporate actions have been highly sought after by our users,
especially due to issues around manual data entry and the large
variety of fields," said Christina Qi, CEO of Databento. "We've
seen strong demand from systematic trading firms who are struggling
to source this data reliably. We're aiming to meet their needs with
a service that's focused on accuracy and ease of programmatic
use."
Databento's corporate actions dataset is compatible with any
programming language via its web API. It also works natively with
popular data processing tools like Pandas over Databento's Python
client library. These APIs follow the same conventions and formats
as the company's existing live and historical market data APIs,
enabling seamless integration with equity and options data.
