Hello
I hope this email finds you well.
My name is Asma Bentaib, I am a third-year Ph.D. student in Monetary and Banking Economics at Kasdi Merbah University (Algeria). I am currently working on my dissertation entitled “Impact of Bank Governance Quality on Stock Liquidity and Price Synchronicity: Evidence from the Euronext Stock Exchange” under the supervision of Pr. Mohamed Taher Lamoudi.
The governance quality variable needs a set of governance mechanisms that can be obtained from the BankFocus database. However, neither I nor my university have access to this database.
For this reason, I am contacting you to ask for your help in obtaining the data, since I saw that your university has a subscription to this database, and I am willing to cover any costs associated with obtaining the data.
If you can help me, I will send you a detailed explanation of what I need. I would be very grateful for your help, which would be of great importance to me as I am in urgent need of it.
I look forward to your reply. Thank you and best regards.
Sincerely,
Asma.
