Hi I am trying to get the historical information of spin-offs for a given set of symbols with - date, new entity ric/ISIN, old entity ric/ISIN
I also need M&A information with date, merger symbol, acquirer symbol, type of acquisition.
How do I do this with Eikon Python API?
For content related questions you will need to contact your local Thomson Reuter support desk and try to build the required functionality in Eikon Excel first. Or, alternatively, have a look at all available fields in the Data Item Browser app on Eikon.
I do not find the exact information that I am looking for in the data item browser.
I tried following queries
data, _ = ek.get_data(['BLT.L'], ['TR.DealDate', 'TR.DealType', 'TR.DealStatus', 'TR.DealAnnouncementDate', 'TR.DealValueAnnounced'], {'SDate':'-10AY', 'EDate':'1AY', 'sort':'asc'})
data, _ = ek.get_data(['BLT.L'], ['TR.DealAcquiror', 'TR.DealTarget','TR.DealStartDate','TR.DealClosedDate','TR.DealExpirationDate', 'TR.DealPricePerShare', 'TR.DealCashAmount'], {'SDate':'-10AY', 'EDate':'1AY', 'sort':'asc'})
but I do not get the demerger information for demerger event that started on
17-Mar-2015 for BLT.L
With Eikon Excel Formula Builder, I found it in Corporate Actions ->Capital Changes category.
