Get started with financial data

On these pages you can find our tutorials, in which we explain ( and show you with short movies) how to e.g. search for stock prices via Datastream or how to collect annual report data with the Thomson ONE Banker add-in. These pages are under construction and will be expanded with new topics.

After consulting these pages you can hopefully start yourself with using the financial databases. These tutorials can also be used as a preparation for your individual support appointment: you can discover what is available and think of questions you want to pose at the meeting.

Below you see an overview of topics and related databases. Click on "How?" to see how to search for that topic in that particular database. The databases itself can be found in the list of financial databases.

You can find our tips, tricks and hints in our blog.

Should you have questions about how to search for financial data or remarks about these pages, please use the  question form on the left of the screen.
