ExecuComp vendor data¶
ExecuComp provides executive identities, annual roles, and compensation for public firms.
Access: WRDS
Storage: /data/compustat/execucomp/comp_execucomp/
The matching code currently reads:
| Asset | Grain | Main fields used |
|---|---|---|
person.parquet |
Executive | execid, names, gender |
anncomp.parquet |
Executive-firm-year | execid, gvkey, year, title, CEO flag, compensation |
ExecuComp compensation fields such as salary and tdc1 are reported in
thousands of dollars; the project converts them to dollars when building the
matched-pay data.
The vendor files do not contain Revelio worker identifiers. The executive and governance pipeline links executives to workers using firm, name, and overlapping employment histories.
