What is covered
The gaps matter as much as the contents, so both are on this page.

How complete each field is
These are not error rates. They are how often a release actually states the thing, which is a fact about press releases rather than about this database.
- Deal type stated
- 100% (1,365)
- Sector stated
- 87% (1,195)
- A value stated
- 64% (871)
- At least one lawyer named
- 92% (1,255)
What this is not
It is not a market census. The bank is deep on the global firms that run a press operation and thin on everyone else, so a firm's position here reflects how much it announces at least as much as what it does. Any league table you build from this should say "published deal activity" on it, and this site always does.
It is also not a duplicate of the releases. Each record links to its own announcement on legaldesire.com, which stays the source.
1,383 records in total, of which 1,368 describe a transaction and the rest are firm news that was filed alongside them.
