Data Collection
Through Mergent’s proprietary Praedea™ Data Extraction Platform, we replace the manual processes and legacy systems currently used to collect data from financial/SEC filings and other documents. Praedea automatically extracts predetermined numeric figures and text from semi-structured electronic documents in real-time, while retaining links to underlying sources for absolute data transparency. With Praedea, detailed data is extracted from US and foreign documents in any language.
Key Advantages:
- SEC forms 10-K, 10-Q, S-1, S-4 and DEF 14A
- Earnings and economics reports
- Ownership and mutual fund filings
- Private company financial statements
Extracted data is seamlessly validated for quality control purposes and deposited into existing database schemas. Thereafter,the data is delivered in XML or XBRL to each end-user's custom specifications. With the Praedea DEP's Source Links,a simple “click-through” from any output format (including Microsoft® Excel) follows each numeric figure and textual reference back to its precise location in underlying source documents – thus, fulfilling the market’s increasing demand for absolute data transparency.
