Estate catalog
Data catalog
What FinObservatory is built on. Each entry names the publisher, states the licence, shows the coverage actually held, and links to the source.
FinObservatory does not redistribute licence-encumbered data. Most of what makes this platform interesting is licence-encumbered (the crisis atlas, the long-run rate histories, the systemic-risk series), and those datasets are catalogued, cited, and linked to the publisher, never republished: you get the publisher’s current vintage rather than a stale copy of it, on the publisher’s own terms. FinObservatory’s public API exposes derived model outputs and created indices only. It does not turn this catalog into a download surface.
Coverage below is queried from the live data when this page is built, not typed. Full lineage, including every transformation, is in the methodology.
Estate freshness
The latest observation held for selected estate layers, queried from the live data when this page was built. Daily, quarterly, and annual tiers identify automated refresh lanes. Manual identifies holdings acquired outside those standing pipelines; it does not describe the publisher’s filing frequency. A row’s latest observation is the estate cutoff, not a claim that the holding is current with its publisher. Daily-tier series use the documented pipeline (scripts/refresh.sh); crisis chronologies are reviewed vintage merges, never auto-refreshed. The last column states the publisher cadence or the manual acquisition boundary and links to the official page supporting it.

Held and used, but never republished
These are the datasets FinObservatory analyses but will not pass on, each with the reason. The list is longer than the one above, and it holds most of what the platform is actually for. It is here because a catalog showing only the redistributable slice would misrepresent what the platform runs on.

36 logical datasets are registered in the local parquet estate but have no exact registered-view reference under src. The inventory is derived at build time from the parquet estate, runtime source references, and repository build units. A reader call in an additional build unit is required for Used as an input. Build provenance without an additional reader means Available but unsurfaced; no build-unit evidence means Unknown.
