SEC Filing Details

Description

The SEC generates a html page as an index for every filing it receives containing all the meta-information about the filing. We extract 3 main types of information:

Filing Information

Filing date, accepted date, etc.

Documents

All the documents included in the filing

Filers

Companies included in the filing

Funds

Funds included in the filing

Usage

filing_details(x)

## S3 method for class 'character'
filing_details(x)

## S3 method for class 'xml_node'
filing_details(x)

Arguments

x	URL to a SEC filing index page

Details

For a company, there is typically a single filer and no funds, but many filings for funds get more complicated - e.g. 400+ funds with 100's of companies

NOTE: This can get process intensive for large fund pages. If you don't need all components, try just using filing_info

Value

A list with the following components:

information

A data.frame as returned by filing_information

documents

A data.frame as returned by filing_documents

filers

A data.frame as returned by filing_filers

funds

A data.frame as returned by filing_funds

Examples

# Typically you'd get the URL from one of the search functions
x <- paste0("https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/",
            "712515/000071251517000063/0000712515-17-000063-index.htm")
try(filing_details(x))
