Ownership and acquisition activityAbout this listWhat changed hands, what probably did, and what moved without a known cause, on the public record of privately held employers.Four classes that are never conflated, and on every row: what changed, the buyer if one is known, whether the line is a fact or an inference, the rule and its measured precision when it is inferred, the source, and when it was last verified.
16,118 rows of activity across the first three classes; 3,532 unresolved departures are listed only when asked for. 1,300 rows name a buyer. The full event tape, every source and every event type, is at Event tape.
A meaningful company or plan transition occurred: a final filing then absence from the record, a final filing whose next year is not yet published, a sponsor rename or EIN change. The economic cause is unresolved and is not asserted.

Most important first: ranked by the class of change, how recent it is, the evidence and its confidence, with one company's rows on one day folded into one line.
Tell us your two sectors. Every Monday: every deal announced in them, the buyer, the company and the capital named on it, and the ownership changes DFX read out of the filings.
Capital provider? The lender edition leads with the sponsors that closed in your sectors and who financed each one.
