Available tools 7

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

graph

graph

Knowledge-graph neighborhood of an entity: nodes and typed edges (lists_on, domiciled_in, managed_by, sector_peer…). Use to traverse from a company to its exchange, jurisdiction, funds and peers.

ingest

ingest_text

Extract financial entities and relationships from unstructured text into Finance Foundation Schema v0.1 JSON (companies, markets, assets, funds, banks, countries, indicators + typed relationships + unresolved_identifiers). LLM-powered, validated (taxonomy, ISIN checksums, LEI/MIC formats). Read-only transform: output goes to the caller only and is NEVER added to the Finance Foundation dataset. Limit 6000 chars.

list

list

List entities of one type, optionally filtered. Companies filter by sector/country/q; assets by type (Crypto|Index|Bond|Currency|Commodity). Returns up to `limit` records (default 25).

live

live_data

Latest reference values (refreshed every 3 hours): crypto (BTC/ETH/SOL/XRP/BNB/ADA/USDT/USDC/DAI), FX (EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, USD/CNY, USD/CHF, AUD/USD, USD/CAD, USD/INR, USD/BRL), ECB main refinancing rate, US 10Y Treasury yield, US CPI YoY. Each carries its source and observation date — NOT real-time ticks.

lookup

lookup

Get one financial entity by type and id (slug). Returns the full structured record including external identifiers (LEI/ISIN/FIGI) for companies. Data is seed-0.7 · marketcap-1 · 2026-08-30 — approximate reference values from public sources, versioned, NOT real-time (live_data series refresh every 3 hours). License CC BY 4.0. Correct uses: entity resolution, classification, relationships, jurisdiction/venue context. For live quotes or legal text go to the primary sources each entity links.

resolve

resolve_identifier

Resolve a ticker, LEI, ISIN, FIGI, MIC code or name to entities. The entity-resolution tool: 'US0378331005' → Apple with all identifiers. Matches are ranked (exact identifier > ticker > name).

search

Free-text search across all entity types (companies, markets, assets, funds, banks, countries, research). Returns grouped matches with links.

Finance Foundation — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Finance Foundation do?

It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: graph, ingest_text, list, live_data, lookup, resolve_identifier and 1 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Finance Foundation working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 141 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Finance Foundation?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Finance Foundation need an API key?

No. Finance Foundation completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Finance Foundation?

It answers our handshake in 141 ms on average, which is faster than 85% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
