Overview

Item 404 of Regulation S-K requires companies to disclose transactions over $120,000 with directors, officers, large holders and their families. Those disclosures live in a section of the proxy statement with no fixed format.

The Related Party Transactions API finds the section and returns its text for the latest proxy, or a specific one by accession number, ready for review or an LLM.

FAQ

What counts as a related party transaction?

Any transaction over $120,000 in which the company participates and a director, officer, 5% holder or their immediate family has a material interest.

Is the text structured?

It is returned as text because companies write it freely. Use an LLM or the full-text search to pull specific facts.
