fetch

Fetch one record by an id returned from search ("insurer:<slug>", "group:<slug>", "country:<slug>", "former:<slug>"), e.g. "insurer:micronesia-century-insurance-company-ltd". Returns the record as text with its regulator, class, verification level and register source, the page URL to cite, and the dataset version and licence in metadata. Absence from the directory does not establish absence of a licence. Provided for ChatGPT deep research and company knowledge; for ordinary questions prefer get_insurer, get_group or get_country_summary.

Argument	Type	Description
id*	string	An id from search, in the form "<type>:<slug>".

get_country

Get one country in Africa, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America or North America: regulator (name, acronym, website, notes), currency, counts by class and ownership, verification status against the regulator register, market notes, and its licensed insurers with register identifiers and source caveats. Counts by class count entities, not licences: every company appears once, under the class its register row records, and byClass sums to total. A regulator’s own per-class licence tally is broader and will not match. Most markets return every insurer in one call; a large market returns a first page, and insurersPage gives the total and the nextOffset to pass as offset. Prefer get_country_summary for market facts alone.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
limit	integer	Maximum entity rows to return. Long lists also stop early to keep the response small; the page object reports total and nextOffset.
offset	integer	Entity rows to skip, for paging.
compact	boolean	true: return each insurer as a lean row (slug, name, country, class, groupSlug, verification) without notes, source text, identifiers or links, so more rows fit in one response. get_insurer returns the full record for any slug.
country*	string	Country slug (e.g. "micronesia") or ISO alpha-2 code (e.g. "FM").

get_country_summary

Get compact market facts for one country: regulator, currency, counts, verification and market notes, without its insurer rows. Counts by class count entities, not licences: every company appears once, under the class its register row records, and byClass sums to total. A regulator’s own per-class licence tally is broader and will not match. Accepts a country slug or ISO alpha-2 code. Use list_insurers with country for paged entity records.

get_directory_info

get_footprint

Licensed footprint: which legal entity of an insurance group is licensed in which country, with collected branches, EEA freedom-of-services passporting and GLEIF parents. Pass exactly one group slug (from list_groups, e.g. "allianz") for the country × entity matrix, or an insurer slug for that entity alone. A large group returns its whole matrix with a first page of entity records; entitiesPage gives the nextOffset to pass as offset. Licence rows come from the directory registers; relationship enrichment comes from GLEIF and EIOPA. Null or empty enrichment means it has not been collected, not that no relationships exist.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
group	string	Group slug, e.g. "allianz".
limit	integer	Maximum entity rows to return. Long lists also stop early to keep the response small; the page object reports total and nextOffset. Group footprints only.

insurer	string	Insurer slug, when asking about one entity.

get_group

Get one insurance group by slug: home market, type, continents and countries covered, the slug of every licensed entity in the directory, and their records in insurersDetail. A large group returns a first page of records; insurersDetailPage gives the total and the nextOffset to pass as offset.

get_insurer

Get one insurer by slug, including its parent group, class, regulator, source basis, register identifiers (LEI, national ID) where available, notes, sibling entities in the same group, and the reviewed profile (website, social links, founding year, stock-exchange listings with tickers, and Wikidata id) where one has been collected.

list_insurers

List licensed insurers with optional filters and bounded pages (25 by default, at most 200; a page of large records stops early to keep the response small and reports nextOffset). Filter by continent ("africa", "europe", "asia-pacific", "south-america", "north-america"), country slug (e.g. "micronesia"), class slug (e.g. "captive-risk-retention-group", "composite", "funeral-assistance", "general-non-life", "health-medical"), group type slug (e.g. "corporate-parent-captive", "domestic-private", "foreign-multinational", "mutual-cooperative"), parent group slug or verification level. Country filtering fetches only that market's full insurer records; compact returns lean rows instead.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
class	string	Class of business slug.
group	string	Parent group slug, e.g. "allianz"; list_groups returns them all.
limit	integer	Maximum number of results to return.
offset	integer	Results to skip, for paging.
compact	boolean	true: return each insurer as a lean row (slug, name, country, class, groupSlug, verification) without notes, source text, identifiers or links, so more rows fit in one response. get_insurer returns the full record for any slug.
country	string	Country slug (e.g. "micronesia") or ISO alpha-2 code (e.g. "FM").

list_regulators

List the insurance supervisory authority for every covered country: name, acronym, website, currency, notes and the register source used for verification. Returns every match unless limit or offset is supplied (when paging, limit defaults to 25 and is capped at 200); a long result stops early to keep the response small and reports nextOffset.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
limit	integer	Maximum number of results to return.
offset	integer	Results to skip, for paging.
region	string	Optional region slug, e.g. "north-africa", "west-africa", "central-africa".

resolve_former_name

Resolve a company name that is no longer in use to the insurer listed today. Use this when a policy, certificate or older document names an insurer that does not appear in search_insurers — the company may have been renamed, merged or delisted. Returns what happened, when, and the current entity where one exists. A renamed, acquired, merged or transferred insurer keeps its licence, so its policies continue with the successor; only "failed" means the company failed.
