About the data

 
The Financial Times (FT) is a Japanese-owned (since 2015), English-language international daily newspaper headquartered in London, with a special emphasis on business and economic news. FT publishes a section consisting of financial data and news about companies and markets (source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_Times).
 
Market capitalization refers to the total dollar market value of a company's outstanding shares. Commonly referred to as "market cap," it is calculated by multiplying a company's shares outstanding by the current market price of one share. The investment community uses this figure to determine a company's size, as opposed to using sales or total asset figures.
 
Using market capitalization to show the size of a company is important because company size is a basic determinant of various characteristics in which investors are interested, including risk (source: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/marketcapitalization.asp)
 

For this metric, a company's market cap can be found in the data section of the FT website: https://markets.ft.com/data/

The Monetary unit for this metric is US Dollars. If the value is reported in a currency other than US dollars, be sure to convert the unit to USD, and add conversion details in the comments section.
