Coverage

North America - US Open-Ended Funds, Closed-End Funds, Exchange Traded Funds, and Real Estate Investment Trust.

Target Market

Brokerage (Retail and Institutional Brokerage Firms)

Brokerage has to supply their account holders with 1099 for tax purposes. These 1099s contain the total amount of dividends the account holder has received, applicable to the tax year, in addition to all the income classifications so they can file their tax returns accurately (ordinary income, short term cap gains, long term cap gains, return of capital, etc. plus the qualified portions for each income classification)

Clearing Firms and Trust Accounting Systems

They also have the same functional usage as Retail Brokerage

Facilitators

These are firms that the Retail Brokerage, Clearing Firms and Trust Accounting System may outsource the creation of the 1099s to.

Accounting Firms/Tax Preparation Services (H&R Block as an example plus individual accountants and small accounting firms)

These firms use more of a lookup service to obtain the tax liability for dividends and distributions when their client does not have 1099 (or lost it). They also might use it to double-check the actual dividends in addition to the income classifications (vs just the summary amounts).
