Data Center - SAFE

Research on German and European financial markets suffers from a lack of pan-European data sets. Also, existing sets do not provide a standard identification of, for example, companies. Therefore, researchers often utilize data from the United States where the integration of different databases is more advanced. As a consequence, empirical analyses are mostly based on non-European data. Because of the institutional differences, political recommendations that result from these analyses cannot – or only in a limited scope – be transferred to Europe. Against this background, the SAFE Research Data Center not only draws on the usual international data sources but also creates new European data sets, brings existing data together and processes them. The aim is to place the central research areas of SAFE on a common European data footing. Data access is provided by 'SAFE data sources' https://datacenter.safefrankfurt.de/datacenter/_databases/ and 'FiF - Repositorium für Forschungsdaten aus dem Finanzbereich (Preview version)' https://fif.safe-frankfurt.de/xmlui/

德国及欧洲金融市场的研究领域普遍面临着泛欧洲数据集的匮乏问题。此外，现有的数据集并未提供对例如公司等实体的标准化标识。因此，研究人员往往依赖于美国的数据，那里不同数据库的整合更为先进。由此导致，实证分析大多基于非欧洲数据。鉴于制度差异，由此分析得出的政策建议无法——或者仅限于有限的范围内——转移到欧洲。在此背景下，SAFE研究数据中心不仅依托于传统的国际数据来源，还致力于创建新的欧洲数据集，整合现有数据并进行处理。其目标是将SAFE的中心研究领域建立在共同的欧洲数据基础上。数据访问可通过‘SAFE数据源’（https://datacenter.safefrankfurt.de/datacenter/_databases/）及‘FiF - 财务领域研究数据存储库（预览版）’（https://fif.safe-frankfurt.de/xmlui/）提供。
