CFIDepósitos CRO (IE)

Filing punctuality + completeness at the Irish Companies Registration Office (CRO) + RBO (beneficial ownership) for {legal_name}. Every Irish company (Ltd, PLC, DAC) is registered with the CRO and files its annual return + financial statements → returning absent:not_disclosed is essentially impossible for any company actually incorporated in Ireland. EXTRACTION RULES — MANDATORY: (1) search cro.ie (Companies Registration Office) using the company's legal name OR CRO number — the result returns incorporation date, company type, and the last annual return (B1) + financial statements filing date. (2) cross-check the RBO (Register of Beneficial Ownership) entry on cro.ie and reputable aggregators. (3) search the company's own "Investor Relations"/"Corporate Governance" page for filed accounts. Return composite_signal with sub-signals (each 0-100 + source_url): (a) filing_punctuality — how close the last annual return (ARD) is to the statutory deadline (B1 + accounts filed entro 56 days of the annual return date = 60-100; late = 30-60); (b) filing_completeness — richness of the filed accounts (consolidated + individual + directors' report + auditor's report = 90+, abridged/micro only = 50); (c) registry_status_active — entity active/registered (active/normal=90, struck off/in liquidation/dissolved=20). Return type="absent" reason="no_company_specific_data" ONLY if the entity is verifiably NOT incorporated in Ireland. SUB-SIGNAL OBSERVABILITY (anti-fabrication, MANDATORY): registry EXISTENCE/status is almost always verifiable, but the deposited-accounts CONTENT (filing_punctuality / filing_completeness) is frequently paywalled, fee-gated, or simply not deposited for small/private companies. If you cannot OBSERVE the actual deposit dates or document richness from a CITED source, return that sub-signal as null — do NOT estimate or guess a band from the company's size, sector or country, and do NOT treat a paywalled/undisclosed content sub-signal as "low". registry_status_active must be scored ONLY from a POSITIVE registry hit you cite (the status field visible); if you cannot locate the entity in the national registry at all (ambiguous/non-English legal name, homonym, no hit), do NOT default it to active — return it null. Not-found is NOT active. If NO sub-signal could be observed from any cited source, return type="absent" reason="no_company_specific_data" (a genuine content-absence then resolves to a clean not_applicable, never a fabricated composite).
