Selection of authentic data

This product allows you to query the reference data and obtain the documents belonging to the filings of financial statements accepted and published by the National Bank for a specific legal entity.

The product allows users to retrieve current and historical data based on the company's BCE number.

Users of this web service collect the data in two steps:
