🔔 ESMA Investment Firm Permissions Register

One structured permission_record per authorised investment firm in ESMA's Union authorisation/passporting register — from the official ESMA registers machine endpoint, keyless and logged-out.

Difference: One organisation-level record per authorised entity — firm identity (name, commercial name, LEI, entity type), competent authority, home and host member state, status, authorisation dates, office type, organisational address, legal form, and website — with its ACTIVE authorised MiFID services and its passported host member states aggregated from the register's child records. This is the "who is authorised for what, and where" view, not a raw activity dump.

Output is one esma_investment_firm_permission row per result; billing is pay-per-event, the value event being one permission record (a $0.02 start fee per run, then $0.02 per permission record). Source: registers.esma.europa.eu.

No login, no API key and no CAPTCHA solving are involved: the source is read logged-out with an identified contact User-Agent.

📊 Sample Output

What you get

One permission_record per authorised entity, deduplicated on the register entity id, carrying authorised_services and passported_host_states as structured lists plus their counts. A run_receipt row carries the full-register count, scope, license, attribution, and totals.

⚙️ Sample inputs

1. Quick start — the Store example (this is what the sample above came from)

{
  "maxRecords": 50
}

The sample run charged exactly: 1 × $0.02 apify-actor-start + 50 × $0.02 permission_record = $1.02 on the Free tier — every delivered row was billed.

2. A smaller, narrowed run

{
  "maxRecords": 5
}

Caps the run at 5 rows — about $0.12 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 5 × $0.02).

3. A full-size run

{
  "maxRecords": 20000
}

Up to 20000 rows (the schema default for maxRecords) — about $400.02 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 20000 × $0.02) if the source has that many.

🔧 How it works

Source. The actor reads registers.esma.europa.eu — endpoints: https://registers.esma.europa.eu/solr/esma_registers_upreg/select. Public pages and feeds only; nothing behind a login.

Transport. Plain HTTPS from the Apify platform, no proxy. robots.txt is read first and a disallowed path is never fetched. Every request carries an identified contact User-Agent. Pacing: CRAWL_DELAY=0.0.

Charging. Each permission record is charged at the moment it is pushed (permission_record); a row that fails to charge is not delivered, so the dataset count always equals the charged count.

🔧 How it works

How it behaves

Authorised entities are paged from the official Solr endpoint; for each, active MiFID services and notified host member states are joined from its child docs in batches. Everything emitted is organisation-level — this register contains no personal-contact field. Delivery is bounded to maxRecords.

Source

https://registers.esma.europa.eu/solr/esma_registers_upreg/select

Robots note: registers.esma.europa.eu publishes no valid robots.txt; with no published restriction the machine endpoint is treated as permitted.

Attribution

Source: ESMA registers — registers.esma.europa.eu (Union authorisation/passporting register). Reuse per the ESMA legal notice.

What is not done. No login, no cookie or CAPTCHA bypass, no private or personal-account data, no browser automation.

💰 Pricing example

Event	Free	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Actor Start (`apify-actor-start`)	$0.02	$0.02	$0.02	$0.02
Permission record (`permission_record`)	$0.02	$0.018	$0.016	$0.0134

Worked at the live Free-tier price:

8 permission records: $0.02 start + 8 × $0.02 = $0.18
25 permission records: $0.02 start + 25 × $0.02 = $0.52
100 permission records: $0.02 start + 100 × $0.02 = $2.02

A run that delivers zero rows charges the $0.02 start fee only. A BLOCKED run (source refused) fails loud and charges no value event. The start fee is charged once per GB of run memory; the default run memory is 4096 MB.

Yield on the sample run: NORMAL: 50 unique rows (0 duplicates collapsed). billable=50. maxRecords is a hard ceiling on what is delivered and billed, never a target.

⚖️ Legal & ToS

This actor reads public, logged-out pages and feeds published by registers.esma.europa.eu. It collects only what the source publishes to any visitor, keeps to the source's robots rules (checked on every run), identifies itself with a contact User-Agent, and does not access accounts, private data or anything behind authentication. Use the output in line with the source's terms and your local law; the intended use is B2B research and monitoring.

❓ FAQ

Q: Do I need an API key or a login?
A: No. The source (registers.esma.europa.eu) is read logged-out; the input schema has no key field and the actor carries no secrets.

Q: Why did my run return 0 rows?
A: Read the run's status message. GENUINE_EMPTY means the source was read and had nothing in scope for your input; BLOCKED means the source refused and the run failed without billing a value event — retry later or narrow the input. A zero-row run bills the start fee only.

Q: How many rows can one run return?
A: Up to maxRecords (default 20000). Raise the cap for a bigger run; you pay per delivered row.

Q: How fresh is the data?
A: Every run reads the source live at run time; nothing is cached between runs. Put it on a schedule for a continuous feed.

Q: What formats can I export?
A: The dataset downloads as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS from the run's Dataset tab or the Apify API, and any run can push to a webhook or integration.

Q: How is this different from the other NexGen Watch actors actors?
A: Same output shape and billing model; this one covers registers.esma.europa.eu. The siblings under Related Actors cover the other sources or slices — run several on one schedule for a combined feed.

Q: Are there rate limits?
A: The actor paces itself against the source (CRAWL_DELAY=0.0) and honours its robots rules; there is no per-buyer limit beyond your Apify plan's concurrency.

🆘 Troubleshooting

Run FAILED with BLOCKED → the source refused the request or changed its page shape → nothing was billed beyond the start fee; retry after a while, and if it persists open an Issue with the run id.
Status says CAPPED → your cap (maxRecords) was reached → raise it for a bigger run.
Input validation error on start → a field is outside the schema's allowed values → start from the Quick start block and change one field at a time.
Run TIMED-OUT → a very wide request on a slow day → raise the run timeout in Run options or narrow the input; what was delivered before the timeout is still in the dataset.
