  • Hi @Alan Kar Lun.Tam

    Try this:

    df, err = ek.get_data('ID189900872=', ['TR.GR.Rating(BondRatingSrc=FTC:S&P:MDY).RatingSourceDescription','TR.GR.Rating(BondRatingSrc=FTC:S&P:MDY)','TR.GR.Rating(BondRatingSrc=FTC:S&P:MDY).date'])
    df

  • Hello, I am trying to retrieve the Ratings for some bonds using the python API. Would you please tell me what is the command for it? I cannot make the below script work.


    from refinitiv.data.content import search

    import refinitiv.data as rd

    import pandas as pd

    from datetime import date, timedelta, datetime

    import numpy as np


    rd.open_session()


    response = search.Definition(view=search.Views.FIXED_INCOME_INSTRUMENTS, \

    filter = f"MaturityRedemDate ge {datetime.today().strftime('%Y-%m-%d')} and IsActive eq true and (InstrumentTypeDescription eq 'Bond' or InstrumentTypeDescription eq 'Note') "\

    "and PrincipalCurrency eq 'GBP' "\

    "and InflationProtected eq 'N' "\

    "and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Other Financial' and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Sovereign' and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Official and Muni' and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Supranational' "\

    "and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Banks' and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Agency' and IndustrySectorDescription ne 'Official and Muni'", \

    navigators = "SectorDescription", \

    select="IssuerLegalName, RIC, ISIN, IsActive, IssueDate, MaturityRedemDate, MaturityYearsToRedem, IssuerCountry, "\

    "PrincipalCurrency, InflationProtected, SearchAllCategoryv3, InstrumentTypeDescription, DebtTypeDescription, AssetType, AssetCategory, AssetTypeDescription, AssetSubTypeDescription, AssetStateName," \

    "MoodysRating, MoodysRatingDate, SPBondRatingLatest, SPRating, SPRatingDate, "\

    "MaturityDate, RCSOrganisationTypeName, IndustrySectorDescription, DbSubTypeDescription, Sector, SectorDescription,"\

    "DocumentTitle, Description", \

    top = 10000).get_data()


    df = response.data.df


    df1 = rd.get_data(

    universe=[df["RIC"][1-10000]],

    #fields=['TR.GR.Rating(BondRatingSrc=FTC:S&P:MDY).RatingSourceDescription','TR.GR.Rating(BondRatingSrc=FTC:S&P:MDY)','TR.GR.Rating(BondRatingSrc=FTC:S&P:MDY).date']

    fields=['TR.GR.Rating.RatingSourceDescription','TR.GR.Rating','TR.GR.Rating.date']

    )


    display(df1)


    the goal is to have, per each entry retrieved by the search, the Zspread and the last ratings information (from Moodys and Fitch, with timestamp) also, do you have any guide that I can use regarding retrieving Fixed Income instruments using the Python API? I often struggle to know which info are available and what's the code (for "filter" or "select") to be used
