Bond Reference Data (Terms)
InfoTrie's bond reference dataset is a golden copy of bond terms, keyed by ISIN: the issuer's LEI, issue and maturity dates, coupon type, rate and frequency, floating-rate index and spread, inflation linkage, issued and outstanding amounts, seniority and call features. Several public sources give terms for the same bond; each field is chosen from one of them under a written precedence, every answer names the source of each field, and disagreements between sources go to a review queue. Terms only: no price, yield or valuation.

Frequently asked questions
Does it include prices or yields?
No. This dataset carries the terms of each bond only: no price, yield, spread or valuation.
Can I search by FIGI or by name?
Not yet. Search is by ISIN, CUSIP (turned into its US and Canadian ISINs) or the issuer's LEI. A FIGI is refused, and there is no name search.
How do I credit the sources?
Every answer names its sources by their public labels and carries the attribution to show with the data, for example ESMA, FIRDS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Fiscal Data.
