Reuters Significant Developments

Reuters Significant Developments is a global event analysis and filtering service that identifies crucial, market moving company events on a real-time basis for public companies.

The Reuters Significant Developments database currently contains global data on over 40,000 active companies. Reuters Significant Developments allows users to keep abreast of the market without screening through high volumes of press releases. The data, including history, is made available in a highly searchable format allowing users to analyze trends and patterns for a company, industry or subject matter (e.g., M&A activity in a particular industry).

Reuters' analysts monitor thousands of press releases daily, identifying those developments that are significant to a company's current or future operations. Each story - complete with a date, time and headline - is tagged according to subject and is assigned a significance level. There are 27 possible subject topics and three levels of significance (1=high, 2=medium, 3=low).

Superior timeliness and accuracy of the data is ensured by Reuters state-of-the-art data collection system, which employs a highly trained data collection team and contains sophisticated error checking procedures.

Reuters data collection in the Americas, Europe and Asia is complemented by a robust delivery system featuring daily, intra-day and real-time updates. The data can delivered in XML format via data files (FTP) or API. Our data is also available through Reuters' proprietary applications or third-party analytics platforms.
