Hi, this depends with the context of your research, but you might have to check the regulatory authority of the country in context.

I also study annual reports but have not found a reliable database. I tested several for my doctoral thesis but found ALL had flaws, without exception. Typically arithmetic errors, different aggregations to what I sought or where amounts were not classified consistently from year to year.

In the absence of reliable data I now do it the hard way: obtaining the annual reports I need and extracting the data myself. At least those reports are readily available online and you then have full control of data quality and can trace it back to source.

Thanks Chris this is also the way I do!

issue is always the terminology and what is behind a category

kind regards,
