Access to DealScan has changed this week. We now can access it on the WRDS platform.
Once you’ve clicked the link on our databases pages for DealScan and logged into WRDS, you’ll see all the datasets we have access to in the “Subscriptions” section of the WRDS home page. Select “Thomson Reuters” from this list of datasets.
On the next page, you’ll see links to various datasets that are part of DealScan that you can work with.
