==WHAT MATTERSSummary==Ed - Review code for distance and triple join
Amir - Literature review This paper finds evidence consistent with a Winner's Curse in the acquisitions of Governance measures privately- Tell Will held firms. This Winner's Curse is aggravated when there are more potential bidders and Jake what to pull/or greater information asymmetries.
Will The paper was accepted for publication in the Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance in February of 2017. ==Dbase Notes==  --SDC_TABLE.sql --START AT NEW CODE SDC - Continue cleaning, run SDCv2 -Raw data in SDCBase --No dups SDCV2 --Code and SDCBase through restrict 40216 SDCNo --Build AcqNo SDCA1 --Add previous acqs SDCA2 --Add bin for IT (from SDCwIT) SDCA3 --Add bin for pub/priv (from SDC_test) SDCA4 --Add indu FE (40216) --CRSP_TABLE.sql CRSPFinal --Processed Raw CRSPMain --w/ cusip6 CRSPRelNoInc --Add in the previous code DayNo and lose irrelevant CUSIP EstimationBaseNoDups Estimation1-5 5 --output tables EstimationTotal --THIS IS LIKELY DEPRECATED Competition EventBase --Only SDC relevant CUSIP -3 to +3 ...

How can I use it to merge with CRSP? Riskmetrics made significant changes to their A) The Legacy files have the current CUSIP. With each update, WRDS updated the historical data sources with the latest value. Starting with the new Director and methodology starting in 2007Governance files, we no longer modify the historical data. To merge any of these datasets with CRSP, you can join on the NCUSIP field. As This will match a resultsingle Permco (company identifier), many of but you may still need to select the primary Permno because some companies issue more than 1 security. Merging EXECUCOMP AND IRRC: Q) What is the inputs needed best way to calculate merge Execucomp and IRRC (director and governance) databases? I understand they both have CUSIP, but that matching with CUSIPs isn't always ideal since the CUSIP can change over time for the same firm. A) All Execucomp (CUSIP), IRRC Governance (CN6), and IRRC Directors (CUSIP) CUSIPs are header cusips, in that they reflect the Gindex most recent CUSIP that the company has had. There are no longer availablehowever 2 main differences between Execucomp's CUSIP and IRRC's CUSIP and CN6: 1. While Execucomp uses 8-digit CUSIP, both IRRC datasets have 6-digit CUSIPs. Therefore, you need to use a SAS function like "substr" to take the first 6-digit of Execucomp CUSIP before merging it to IRRC data. ex: cusip6 = substr(CUSIP,1,6); 2. You can check While header convention reflect "most recent" value of an identifier variables, it is dependent on the website date of update of or contact each dataset.Therefore, for CUSIPs that change in between the time that both databases are updated, you might find some discrepancy.To overcome this issue, we recommend that you make use of the CRSP name files (ex: stocknames), that contains all historical CUSIPs that a company has had.  
Also, good to know:
Best Identifier to Use in RiskMetrics Directors- Changes to Identifier between Legacy and Current Files
1. The primary identifier in the current dataset is year-ticker-director_detail_id. Ticker is better populated than cusip in earlier years, but should be about the same in the latest years. For the legacy directors, director_detail_id was in use for some years and legacy_director_id for others.
