Look up FINRA-registered brokers and investment firms by name. Get back registration status, whether they have a disciplinary disclosure on file, and current employment/branch details, straight from FINRA BrokerCheck.

Built for due-diligence checks before hiring a financial advisor, investor protection research, compliance and background-check teams, and journalists covering the wealth-management industry.

Input

{
"query": "John Smith",
"searchType": "individual",
"state": "NY",
"maxResults": 10
}
FieldTypeDescription
querystringName of the single individual or firm to look up.
searchTypestring"individual" or "firm".
statestringOptional two-letter state filter (individual search only).
queriesarrayFor looking up several names in one run: { "query", "searchType", "state" }. Ignored if query above is filled in.
maxResultsintegerMax matches returned per name (default 10).

Output

{
"query": "John Smith",
"type": "individual",
"crdNumber": "4346806",
"name": "JOHN T. SMITH",
"brokerStatus": "Active",
"investmentAdviserStatus": "Active",
"hasDisclosures": false,
"registrationCount": 1,
"currentEmployments": [
{ "firmName": "FIDELITY BROKERAGE SERVICES LLC", "city": "SEATTLE", "state": "WA" }
],
"profileUrl": "https://brokercheck.finra.org/individual/summary/4346806"
}

Firm searches return brokerDealerStatus, branchCount, city, and state instead of employment history.

How it works

Direct calls to the same public search endpoint that powers brokercheck.finra.org (api.brokercheck.finra.org/search/individual and /search/firm) — no scraping of rendered pages, no proxy, no key.

Pricing note

Billed per name searched, not per result returned — searching a common name that returns 10 matches costs the same as one that returns 1.
