Accessing the crosswalk file

Our public crosswalk that connects the Execucomp and L2 individual-level unique identifiers is available here. Using this crosswalk requires licenses to both Execucomp and the L2 Consumer File which provide the underlying data linked by this crosswalk. Click here for more information about L2.

Accessing the full data set

While we publicly provide a crosswalk that connects the Execucomp and L2 individual-level unique identifiers, we also can directly supply you with the data set described in the paper conditional on proof of purchase of a L2 data product that includes the L2 Consumer File by you or research institution with which you have an affiliation. This will allow you to sidestep the data wrangling steps necessary to get the data set in a regression-ready format.
