List of financial instruments and their reference data, as published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA).
This is a dataset of financial instruments and their reference data, as published by ESMA. The data establishes connections between financial instruments and their issuers, and includes information such as the instrument's name, ISIN, and LEI.
This dataset contains entities from a larger database that is used to enrich the data in OpenSanctions with additional details and connections. We only include entities from the source where there is a relevant connection to the entities in the main OpenSanctions database (e.g. to a sanctions target or a politician).
