Changelog#

Here are the notable changes.

2024-03-12#

New Corporate Actions records have the following changes:

  • Fixed Dividends frequency attribute values to match upper/lower case of the specified supported values.

  • Improved FIGI values for Corporate Actions: Corporate Actions endpoints now return Exchange Level FIGI values instead of FIGI Composite values. Each Exchange Level FIGI identifies the security with respect to its primary exchange.

  • Unavailable Corporate Actions dates are now null instead of "0000-00-00". All other unavailable Corporate Actions string type attributes are now null instead of an empty string "".

2024-02-27#

Improved FIGI values for Reference Data: Reference Data endpoints now return Exchange Level FIGI values instead of FIGI Composite values. Each Exchange Level FIGI identifies the security with respect to its primary exchange.

The Reference Data endpoints formerly returned a FIGI Composite value for each security. A FIGI Composite identifies a security across exchanges instead of identifying the security specifically at its primary exchange.

For example, FIGI Composite BBG000BCTLF6 identifies Bank of America Corp. (symbol BAC) across its trading exchanges (over a dozen). Exchange-level FIGI BBG000BCTN44 identifies Bank of America Corp. precisely at its primary exchange: the New York Stock Exchange.
