Unfortunately, this can be a little difficult as CUSIP numbers are owned and created by the
American Bankers Association and operated by Standard & Poor's. To get access to the whole
database of CUSIP numbers, which mainly cover U.S. and Canadian equities along with U.S.
government and corporate debt, you will need to pay a fee to Standard & Poor's or a similar
service that has access to the database.

However, while gaining access to a CUSIP number has been difficult in the past, there are now a
few resources that can be used to access CUSIP numbers. The first is that individual companies
will often display their CUSIP numbers to investors on their websites.

What is a CUSIP number?

I had no idea what a CUSIP number was, so this answer took me a bit of researching, something
I enjoy immensely. According to the SEC, a CUSIP (Committee on Uniform Securities
Identification Procedures) number "identifies most securities, including: stocks of all registered
U.S. and Canadian companies, and U.S. government and municipal bonds. The CUSIP system—
owned by the American Bankers Association and operated by Standard & Poor’s—facilitates the
clearing and settlement process of securities."

If you're trying to find a CUSIP number, you're looking for a number that identifies a type of
security (for more on securities and CUSIP numbers I invite you to read About US Economy and
Business).

From my research, I found that one way to access the entire CUSIP database actually takes a
subscription to Standard & Poor's or a similar service that has access to the CUSIP database.

CUSIP stands for Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures. Formed in 1962,
this committee developed a system (implemented in 1967) that identifies securities, specifically
U.S. and Canadian registered stocks, and U.S. government and municipal bonds.

The CUSIP number consists of a combination of nine characters, both letters and numbers,
which act as a sort of DNA for the security - uniquely identifying the company or issuer and the
type of security. The first six characters identify the issuer and are assigned in an alphabetical
fashion; the seventh and eighth characters (which can be alphabetical or numerical) identify the
type of issue; and the last digit is used as a check digit.

The CUSIP Service Bureau is operated by Standard & Poor's on behalf of the American Bankers
Association (ABA). When setting out to develop the CUSIP system of identification, the ABA
basically had two main criteria it was trying to meet. First, it wanted the identification to contain
the fewest number of characters possible and to be linked to an alphabetical sequence of issuer
names. Secondly, it recognized that the system should be adequate given the current operating
requirements while having the flexibility to adapt to any future needs or changes in the
operating systems. For more information on the CUSIP system, visit Standard & Poor's CUSIP
Service Bureau.

How to Find a Bond CUSIP

CUSIP stands for Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures. Every stock or bond
has its own CUSIP number, which helps identify the specific security. According to the American
Bankers Association, there are over 8.4 million CUSIPs in use.

Other Options

1. Pay a fee to the American Bankers Association to access their database of CUSIP numbers.
The website is referred to as CUSIP Global Services (CGS). The fee varies according to the
number of users, the type of investment product (bond, stocks, mortgage-backed security), the
amount of detail you need, and the time you need access to the database. See Resources for
contact information to request a quote on a subscription.

2. Go to the Fidelity Investments website. You do not need to be a client of Fidelity in order to
look up the CUSIP.
3. Enter the name of the company and the CUSIP will show up. The best way to search is by
ticker symbol. For instance, the CUSIP for Cheescake Factory (NYSE : CAKE) is: 163072101.
