What it returns
Corporate actions for US securities in clean JSON: reverse and forward splits, symbol changes, name and CUSIP changes, deletions, mergers, bankruptcies and dividends. Sources are the FINRA OTC Daily List (2014 to today) and the Nasdaq-listed symbol change history.
Event type, FINRA event description, **publication timestamp**, effective (ex) date, old and new symbol, old and new name, split rates, dividend amount and type, declaration, record and payment dates, market category, bankruptcy flag, and comments.
Common uses
Keep a security master in sync: catch symbol and name changes before they break your joins. Reverse-split screens and alerts. Point-in-time backtests: every row carries the time FINRA published it.
