Try looking up the company on the New York State Permit website.

"PepsiCo, Inc. was founded in 1965 through the merger of Pepsi-Cola and Frito-Lay."\n\nSince the certificate was not turned in for reissue at any point after this merger, the company turned it over to the state as unclaimed property. You need to contact the state and find out the procedure for getting it back. You should be entitled to getting the shares back which you could then send to the stock transfer agent for issuing in the new shares with accrued dividends.

If you know the name of the company, you can search online for the ticker symbol and investment information.\n\nwww.yahoo.finance.com is simple to use.\n\nYou can also search the Wall Street Journal, Forbes and Business Week for stories related to the company you are trying to find.

Try contacting the corporate registry in your province. Most societies are incorporated, and their articles of incorporation (or letters patent, depending on where you live) should be public. There may be a fee to access them, though.

Check with their bankers if you can or whether they file their returns on time to the company registrar...in fact you can also read their financials (copy) from the registrar's office...\n\nIf it is listed check the market capitlisation and movement\n\nIf it is privately held - check the profiles of the partners/sponsors from businessmen/banker

The way I did it was through the Better Business Bureau online. When you go to their website you just put in the name of the company and that information will be there.

* Attorney\n* Do it yourself\n\nIf you do it yourself, go to the Secretary of State web site for the relevant site, e.g., Texas, and look for forms. They should have the form for the Articles of Incorporation. (However, you might not want a corporation, and might want an LLC or an LP. To make this decision, talk to your CPA or an attorney.)

Assuming the stocks you are asking about are in the form of bearer stock certificates (physical pieces of paper), you should find the following information on the certificate:\n\n1.  The name of the oil company that issued the stock you are holding.  You can search for this company on the internet to find out if it was purchased by another firm that still exists today.  If the stock you are holding was purchased by another firm, you may own shares in that new firm.\n\n2.  Look for the CUSIP number on the certificate.  You can do a similar search as outlined above to find out what happened to the company you're looking for.

You should be able to find a lot of information on a registered company in England and Wales from the Companies House website, which is the registrar for all companies registered in England and Wales. If you also want to include Scotland you'll need to contact Companies House in Edinburgh (capital of Scotland).\n\nThe website is http://www.companieshouse.gov.uk/index.shtml\n\nYou can also get some more information from WikiPedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Companies_House\n\nThere are some free tools to get info on the Companies House website and also some chargeable tools as well.

I am sorry, I tried a lot but dint get any answer.\n\nBut good site for company info is:\nwww.hoovers.com\n\nAlso try to look for your country's stock exchanges websites and search details about listed companies. This way you can get detailed info about listed companies atleast. For unlisted companies, you need to surf search engines. Else look for databases prepared by private players; like in India it is done by an agency called CMIE through its software titled 'Prowess'. \n\nGood luck!!!

What kind of research?  If you're wanting to report on a specific company's roots/ history, the easiest thing to do is to pick a company and go to their home page.  Typically they have a search function in which you can search for "history" or they'll have a History button.  \n\nHere's a few of the larger companies history sites\nMetLife:  http://www.metlife.com/Applications/Corporate/WPS/CDA/PageGenerator/0,4132,P260,00.html?FILTERNAME=@URL&#92;&FILTERVALUE=/WPS/\n\nBCBS:  http://www.bcbs.com/history/index.html\n\nState Farm: http://www.statefarm.com/about/about_story.asp\n\nFor general insurance information:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurance  (just remember that wikipedia is written by people like you and me and they do make mistakes. ie its not as reliable as Britannica, but at least it's free)

Go out to their website and look there, if you don't find anything look at their annual stockholder's report, which should be located on their website as well.

Yahoo Finance.  Once you have found the company, there is a "historical prices" link on the left column.  Go to it.  You can even export the history to excel, just scroll all the way down to the bottom, you will find a "download to excel" button.
