EventRegistry: global real-time media observatory

20th January 2020, Jožef Stefan Institute, Slovenia

Event Registry is real-time cross-lingual global media monitoring service for modelling global social dynamics (eventregistry.org) developed by the Jožef Stefan Institute.

Event Registry is a global media monitoring tool that aggregates and analyses news content for over 120,000 news sources published globally in 100+ languages. Events mentioned in the news are identified and relevant information about them is automatically extracted and stored in a searchable form. The data can be accessed directly on the platform or via the API.
Eventregistry supports various analytics including deep analytics of the events and correlations between events, extracted entities and financial data extracted from the main financial indexes.

Eventregistry will be used to provide wider context to system internal data that is being used by the financial sector. This scenario is already running in Bloomberg and Morgan Stanley. The ambition in INFINITECH is to use additional internal data (based on scenarios) to provide solutions for new scenarios e.g. anti-money laundering, procurement, financial advisors, etc.
ER will be used to additionally enrich data, collected from internal sources in Pilot#8.
