Use of this dataset for Financial Fraud Detection

I am willing to perform financial fraud detection using this dataset. I am wondering if this dataset contains information of annual reports for companies that committed frauds in the earlier years?

Hi @aryaman27 ,
Thanks for your interest !
I don't know explicitly. You can get a list of the stock tick codes of the companies from the filename key in metadata.json (for example : NYSE_SYF_2019 for Synchrony Financial in the NYSE). From that you can probably check if the company name belongs to a list of confirmed frauds (which might be hard to come by).
Cheers,
Charles

Okay, thank you so much for the reply!
