& According to the Administrative Measures for Information Disclosure of Listed Companies, listed companies, as information disclosure obligors, must truthfully, accurately, promptly, and completely disclose legally required and voluntary information to the market. This publicly disclosed information includes, but is not limited to, company basic information, key accounting data and financial indicators, shareholder holdings, and executive compensation details. Information disclosure by listed companies serves as a critical basis for government supervision and investor behavior. The effective combination of administrative regulation and market oversight forms a dual-track effect that promotes the stable and orderly development of the securities market.

  Reviewing relevant research on listed companies over the years, executives, as the primary decision-makers in corporate operations, represent a combination of knowledge and capability. They constitute a scarce and inimitable critical resource for enterprises, and their individual characteristics influence research and development investment decisions. On the other hand, the selection of executives by listed companies often exhibits certain geographic patterns. Such information can be reflected in the publicly disclosed birthplaces and birthdates of executives.

  CnOpenData has compiled birthplaces and birthdates of executives in A-share listed companies from their historical prospectuses. This dataset covers information such as the birthplaces and birthdates of executives in A-share listed companies over the years, including fields such as Stock Code, Prospectus Date, Executive Name, Position, Place of Birth (出生地), and Birth Date (出生日期).
