Layline institutional holding reports

This dataset captures the quarterly investment holdings of institutional investment managers and maps the ownership structure of public firms. These Schedule 13F reports are submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission quarterly by all institutional investment managers with at least $100 million in assets under management. Most academic research examining the common ownership of corporations and the portfolio holdings of large investment managers is based on proprietary commercial databases. This hinders the replication of prior work due to unequal access to these subscriptions and because the data manipulation steps in commercial databases are often opaque. To overcome these limitations, the presented dataset is created from the original regulatory filings; it is updated daily and includes all information reported by investment managers without alteration.
