Datastream

Datastream provides financial time series data covering a wide range of topics for many countries. 

As the database was first started in the United Kingdom, the terms used are British.

Not all data variables are available for all periods in all countries; there are differences and gaps.

You can find some data on suspended and delisted securities too.
