What did you improve in the Database?
Data for the symbol FFH.TO was incorrect. Correct company is Fairfax Financial from Canada, not X Financial from China.

Just wondering: Is there a proper method to validate new changes submitted by users? Otherwise propensity for human induced errors would be quite high.

Thanks for the PRs, will have a look soon. To answer your question, not really other than manual Google searches!

Thanks Jeroen!

I found a number of other issues (e.g. symbols CAF, EDD, IIF, MS, MSD, etc. all have the name "Morgan Stanley"). Can we connect directly (email) to discuss further? Thanks.

Hi! Interesting, that doesn't seem right. We can chat via LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/boumajeroen) or otherwise jer.bouma@gmail.com
