„Combined Firm Data for Germany" – Possibilities and Consequences of Merging Firm Data from Different Data Producers

Abstract: In the project "Combined firm data for Germany" (KombiFiD) firm data from different institutions were merged and made available for research for the first time. The institutions involved in the project faced considerable challenges both due to the narrow legal limits underlying such a merging procedure and as a result of the partial lack of a unique identifier. This paper provides an overview of the objectives associated with the project and its progress.
