GOVDATA

The LeishTon BoardGovTM database contains corporate governance and boardroom processes data (GovData), which are biographical and relationship capital information on most board members in the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) listed companies and banks in Nigeria. The foundation of an effective Relationship Capital Management is quality data. When quality data is delivered in an easily accessible form, then, researchers can concentrate their efforts in other areas of the research process.  . The corporate governance and boardroom processes data (GovData) includes, but not limited to, board size, board diversity, duality, number of board meetings, board structure, committees’ structure, external auditor, profit before tax (PBT), profit after tax (PAT), profit before interest, depreciation and amortisation (EBIDA), shareholders’ fund (SHF), total assets, total revenue (total earnings), earning per share (EPS), dividend per share (DPS), etc. The LeishTon BoardGovTM database contains in-depth and comprehensive profile of all directors of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) listed companies from 2001. It also contains historical and current profile of directors of all banks existing in Nigeria as at 2016 from 2001. The data are updated on a daily basis. The intention is to extend the data collection in the nearest future to all senior management employees of NSE listed companies and banks, rather than just board members, and to also extend the data collection to other non-listed companies on a sector/industry by sector/industry basis.

LeishTon BoardGovTM defines “high quality’ regarding its database along four lines: Accuracy, Reliability, Completeness and Timeliness. Accuracy in this context means that data has been transcribed into the LeishTon BoardGovTM database correctly. Reliability in this context means that all transcribed data can be independently verified and the correctness of data can be consistently validated. Completeness in this context means that the profile of any director or a member of senior management transcribed into the LeishTon BoardGovTM databaseis as complete as disclosure allows. Timeliness in this context means that any change to a director’s or a member of senior management’s profile is updated as soon as it is discovered.
