What PoliTrade does

PoliTrade organizes publicly available financial-disclosure data for federal officials into searchable officials, transactions, securities, and modeled market-performance views.

Why it exists

Government disclosure records can be difficult to search and compare. PoliTrade is designed to make those public records more accessible while keeping the underlying filing as the source of record.

What it is not

PoliTrade is not a brokerage, investment adviser, campaign organization, or recommendation service. Modeled results are estimates for research and educational use.

Transparency

We distinguish disclosed information from modeled calculations and preserve links to source filings whenever available. See Methodology and Data Sources for details.
