Resources for Financial Statements

Publicly traded companies must disclose required financial statements to investors and the general public, which means you can typically find this documentation on their general websites, or websites geared towards investors. 

However, these websites can make it challenging to aggregate data, and sometimes, it is difficult to find. 

The University Libraries subscribe to databases that aggregate this information in easy-to-access formats.
