- working with identifiers like the ISIN-code, company ID and Board ID;
- combining data from different BoardEx datasets;
- creating your own variables from the BoardEx data in Excel or Stata;
- combining BoardEx data with data (e.g. financials, ratio's, stock returns) from other databases like Orbis, Compustat or Eikon.
