Eikon pulling RIC entity hierarchy through Python API

Is there a way to pull the tree/hierarchy of subsidiaries associated with a given RIC parent via the Eikon Python API, and if so what fields should be used?

  • Using Screener with public & private companies universe you can retrieve all the subsidiaries of an organization. Here's an example retrieving all subsidiaries of Ford Motor Co (organization PermID 4295903068).

    ek.get_data('SCREEN(U(IN(Equity(active,public,private,primary))),'
                          'Contains(TR.UltimateParentId,"4295903068"))',
                         ['TR.CommonName','TR.ImmediateParentId'])
