SHoF Data center – a national mission

SHoF Research Data Center has a national mission to develop and distribute valuable datasets to the benefit of Swedish academia.

Modern financial research is reliant on the availability of high-quality data but access to these databases is costly. By providing financial data to researchers and students free of charge, SHoF Research Data Center aims to lower the barriers to conducting high-quality empirical research.

The initiative provides access to several types of data such as daily asset pricing data, high frequency asset pricing data, accounting data, sustainable economics data, and insurance data.

The data sets are available for the academic community only.

The SHoF Research Data Center is funded by the Swedish government through Vinnova and the Swedish private financial sector.
