This server does not currently have a deployable release on Glama. Follow the repository's setup instructions to install and configure it for your MCP client, including any required credentials and local dependencies.
An MCP server that gives AI assistants (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, etc.) natural language access to WRDS financial data for credit and equity analysis.
29 tools across bonds, credit ratings, financials, equity, loans, screening, and comps — plus a guarded SQL escape hatch and schema discovery for ad-hoc analysis.
Requires a WRDS account. This tool is a client for WRDS (Wharton Research Data Services). You must have your own WRDS subscription (academic or institutional) to use it. This project is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by WRDS or the Wharton School.
Python 3.10+
A WRDS account with access to the datasets you want to query (CRSP, Compustat, TRACE, FISD, DealScan, etc.)

"Compare F, GM, and STLA — build me a comps table."
"Screen for BB-rated issuers with leverage under 4x and market cap over $5B."
"Show me the HY market benchmark returns for the last 12 months."
"Is Ford's 2030 bond cheap or rich relative to BBB peers?"
"What are the covenant terms on Delta's syndicated loans?"
"Pull TRACE transactions for Apple bonds in Q4 2024."
