A-share listed companies' environmental penalty system compiles administrative environmental penalty records imposed on A-share listed companies and their affiliated entities (including subsidiaries, joint ventures, associates, etc.) nationwide. After systematic collection, cleaning, and matching, it forms a structured dataset covering key information such as stock codes, penalty authorities, penalty dates, violation types, fine amounts, and violation details. The database is updated in real-time, providing comprehensive and timely support for researchers and corporate users in monitoring corporate environmental compliance and risks.
Data Features:
- Extensive Coverage and Strong Representativeness: The database covers all provinces and municipalities nationwide and has been accurately linked to listed company systems, comprehensively reflecting the overall environmental compliance performance and risk distribution of A-share companies.
- Clear System and Explicit Linkages: Through multidimensional fields such as "stock code + fiscal year + affiliated company name," it clearly labels the equity holdings and control relationships between penalty records and listed companies, supporting environmental risk transmission analysis and compliance assessment at the group level.
- Standardized Structure and Easy Analysis: Key fields such as penalty type, fine amount, violation details, and penalty basis have been standardized, supporting quantitative research, trend analysis, and cross-company comparisons, significantly reducing data cleaning and organization costs.
Data Application Value:
