print(r.json())What is FOCUSN?
FOCUSN is an EDGAR index code for paper submissions by registered broker-dealers related to the FOCUS (Financial and Operational Combined Uniform Single) reporting framework. Filed on paper: the EDGAR record has the filer, date and accession number, and the document itself is an auto-generated placeholder that points to the SEC's paper copy.
The dataset is useful as an activity log: which broker-dealers made these submissions and when. For audited annual financial information, use the electronic X-17A-5 filings.
Registered broker-dealers.
Filed on paper; EDGAR shows the date the SEC indexed it.
