Bloomberg API Corporate Action


In Bloomberg API, using .net, does anyone know how to get the corporate action of an equity? I tried to get all the fields of an equity by using Subscription but I can't find any related to corporate action. I also tried to use Field Search Request but unsuccessful, the link is: bloomberg API - Field Search Request.


Solution

  • You can get corporate actions like Dividends, Rights,Spin Offs Splits and No Delivery. DVD_EX_DATE for example. Use static request on Equity for this.

    Easiest way to see corporate actions related fields is from the excel plugin. Open import data -> Market Reference,Analytical,Data Sets insert a stock and look in the corporate actions (I couldn't upload a screenshot)
