The main source of information on commodities and futures & options available at the VU University is the database Datastream. This database can be used by researchers if the software is installed on their computer (contact the IT department if you want to arrange this). Datastream is available for students on computers in the library on the 3rd and 4th floor and in computer rooms in the VU Campus main building (1st, 5th and 7th floor, B-wing).

Instruction videos and help information on Datastream is available in the Blackboard course of the Data Center in the section Company Info.

Datastream problems?

Some students may currently have trouble finding or using the Datastream database on computers in the computer rooms on the 5th and 7th floor of the B-wing of the main university campus building.

According to the IT department of the university the solution may be that the student accounts need to be changed for people who have problems using Datastream.

Students who think that their student account needs to be checked can go to the UC-IT Servicedesk (room 0A-11) on the ground floor of the main Campus building.
