How do I access the Finance Zone remotely?


The complete LSEG Datastream database, and parts of the LSEG Workspace and S&P Capital IQ Pro databases, are only available from the Eddie Davies Finance Zone in the AMBS building. The FactSet database is only available on campus on a University-managed device using GlobalProtect. There is no remote access offered for these databases. We apologise for the inconvenience.

Researchers with a managed Windows 10 device may install Datastream and Capital IQ Pro Excel add-ins from the Software Center. After installation, these databases may be used anywhere.

Students and researchers can access SDC Platinum via LSEG Workspace online.

 

What does this mean for statistical software?

  • Stata, SAS, NVivo and other statistical analysis software packages are no longer available from the Finance Zone remotely.

What other databases could I use instead?
