# banks_get_financials Fetch one bank's bounded, newest-first FDIC quarterly financials. | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Category | Banks (`banks`) | | Exposure | public | | MCP tool | `banks_get_financials` | | Documentation | https://www.agentdatasets.com/docs/tools/banks_get_financials | ## Description Fetch one bank's bounded, newest-first FDIC quarterly financials. The shared envelope's `data` identifies the institution and reports `period_type="quarter"`. `data.quarters` holds report-date periods, fiscal-quarter labels, and `values` dictionaries keyed by `metric_key`; every value carries an exact decimal, unit, currency, and `as_of`. `data.metric_definitions` echoes the requested vocabulary and its interpretation. `meta` carries `source="fdic"` and the freshest value timestamp on the page; `pagination` carries the 8-quarter default, `has_more`, and `next_cursor` (maximum 40 quarters per call). FDIC monetary metrics use **USD thousands**, not dollars: multiply a returned monetary value by 1,000 to express dollars. A definition with `basis="ytd_flow"` (for example `net_income_ytd`) is cumulative from the start of that year, so do not treat it as a standalone quarterly flow. Percent metrics have null currency. Use `banks_search_institutions` first when you have a name; use `stocks_*` for SEC filers because an FDIC cert is not a ticker. To page, pass `pagination.next_cursor` back as `cursor`; stop when `has_more` is false and `next_cursor` is null. Errors are `unknown_entity` for an unrecognized cert and `bad_parameter` for an unknown metric, reversed date range, or invalid cursor (schema-invalid bounds are rejected before dispatch). Example: `banks_get_financials(cert=628, metrics=["total_deposits", "re_construction_land"], limit=4)`. FDIC cert 628 is JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association. ## Parameters Input schema advertised to MCP clients and mirrored by the REST query string. | Parameter | In | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | cert | input | `integer` | yes | — | — | Exact FDIC certificate number from banks_search_institutions. This is not an RSSD id or stock ticker. | | metrics | input | `array \| null` | no | null | max items 30 | Optional curated metric_key list (at most 30); omit for every curated FDIC metric. Values are keyed by these names and data.metric_definitions explains each metric's title, units, currency, basis, category, and description. | | start | input | `string (date) \| null` | no | null | — | Inclusive lower bound on the visible FDIC quarter-end report date (YYYY-MM-DD); omit for no lower bound. | | end | input | `string (date) \| null` | no | null | — | Inclusive upper bound on the visible FDIC quarter-end report date (YYYY-MM-DD); omit for no upper bound. | | limit | input | `integer` | no | 8 | min 1, max 40 | FDIC report quarters to return, newest first (1–40). | | cursor | input | `string \| null` | no | null | — | Opaque pagination.next_cursor from the previous response; keep cert, metrics, start, and end constant while paging. Omit for the newest quarter. | ## Provenance - `fdic` — Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Institutions directory (cert-keyed entities) and curated quarterly bank financials, FDIC BankFind Suite API (U.S. Government work, public domain (17 U.S.C. § 105)).
