For automated text processing, the inventors devised, among other things, an exemplary system that automatically extracts financial events from various unstructured text based sources, such as press releases and news articles. Extracted events, such as mergers & acquisitions, earnings guidance reports, and actual earnings announcements, are represented as structured data records which can be linked, searched, and displayed and used as a basis for controlling accessing to the source documents and other related financial documents for named entities. |
