The Shenzhen Stock Exchange has launched a new XBRL service platform for listed companies, allowing investors to view, analyze and download the reports of all 740 companies listed in Shenzen from 2004 to 2008.
It’s a timely feature for anyone following the China mark right now. The platform serves small and medium investors, and allows viewers to find financial indicators in an easy and quick way through the platform’s functions like information query, analysis and comparison, graph display and file download. Comparison and display of historical financial indicators of the same company or a certain financial indicator in a number of companies are also available.
The good news is that it’s free. The bad news is that you have to understand Chinese. The best news is that you can get XBRL data feeds in English from both the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE) and the larger Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) from EDGAR Online and, using EDGAR Pro or I-Metrix, you can perform far greater analysis.
For anyone following the volatile China market, we recommend this white paper on How to Invest in China that explains how China’s business data is gathered, aggregated and resold to investors and analysts, and what opportunities actually exist for investors outside of China.
