CFO turnover and dismissal database (2022 version and 2023 version)

  • 1. The University of Adelaide

Description

We have developed an open access database of CFO turnover and dismissal in S&P 1500 firms from 2000 to 2022. Specifically, we conduct an extensive search for archival documentation of CFO turnover events and code for various types of departure. Our dataset identifies eleven mutually exclusive categories of CFO turnover—including death or illness, dismissals, internal reassignments, resignations, and retirements—and includes evidence for our coding.

We also provide our coding scheme for 2022 and 2023 version respectively, as well as user manual for understanding key variables in our dataset.
