Mergent, Inc.

Need information on a publicly traded U.S. company? Librarians in the Wirtz Labor Law Library have access to a database that can gather company information on behalf of DOL employees. Mergent, Inc. ( http://www.FISonline.com ) has developed a web-based product that allows you to retrieve corporate data. With a company name and/or ticker symbol, it can retrieve all subsidiaries, officers, directors, balance sheets, financials, recent news headlines, property, history, and even real time SEC (EDGAR) documents.

If you do not have a particular company in mind, it is also possible to search specific criteria and generate a report for a number of companies. Another added feature of this database is that you can export search results to an Excel file, making it easy to compare data on multiple corporations.
