Subject: Executive Information - Summary of responses
Date: Monday, February 15, 1999 8:52AM
Many thanks to everyone who suggested an approach to locating information
about a corporate executive. In response to a number of requests, I'm
summarizing the suggestions for the list.
Fee-based databases:
Lexis PEOPLE:EXECHG or Secretary of State Records at CORP:ALLSOS or
State:ALLSOS
Westlaw SLEUTH
Information America (name search)
CDB Infotek - Discovery Search
Dun & Bradstreet (not sure about search strategy - someone seems to recall
this was possible)
Free internet resources:
http://corptech.com/ResearchAreas/PeopleSearch.cfm (Thanks to Mary Baker)
But where I actually found much of my information was, in retrospect rather
obviously, in the archives of the local business journal on the internet. I
found that many business journals make their archives (from 95 or so on)
available to search on the internet for free, and it's a good place to start
when linking a particular individual to the companies with which he/she
might have been involved. Found nothing in Lexis or Westlaw on my exec, but
did find him in several business journals, which was a jumping-off point for
research into the financials of the companies I now knew he was associated
with. Again, thanks to all who contributed.
