permID for ETFs

Johann Lourens

Can I use entity search to find permIDs for ETFs? For example, ticker:GLD AND mic:XJSE, does not return any data even though there is a GLDJ.J gold ETF listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange

I got a confirmation from the Open PermID team that GLDJ.J is of Commodity ETFs (TRCSAssetClass.mdaas = ETFC) type which is not supported in permid.org.

You can also find all available Quote PermIDs in the quote entity bulk download at https://permid.org/download.

I am unable to search this RIC (GLDJ.J) on the Open PermID website.

Therefore, it seems that this RIC is not in the Open PermID database. I will contact the Open PermID support team for confirmation.

Thank you. It is possible to find out if this is a more general feature? As in, no exchange traded products are in permID?
