Hello, I was looking for the country that the OSCI company would be headquartered in.
Would you know what's the best way to obtain this information?

Thank you.

For anyone else looking in on this issue we collated the data for OSCI into a series of files that are available for all to be downloaded here: https://ststaticprodosciwebz2vmu.blob.core.windows.net/data/share/OSCI_change_ranking.zip

Do you mean how to get countries for companies participating in the OSCI ranking?

We did not have such functionality. But I think that for most companies you can get information, for example, from Wikipedia. But not all may be there.

For research purposes, I would suggest trying to automatically collect information from Wikipedia, the rest can be obtained, I think, manually.
