DealScan has data on the global commercial loan market. Compustat has financial data on companies. Often those using DealScan would like to link to the financial data in Compustat.  The DealScan Compustat links are available through WRDS. Use the Roberts Dealscan-Compustat Linking Database. For info on how the linking table was created, see Chava, Sudheer, and Michael R. Roberts, 2008, How Does Financing Impact Investment? The Role of Debt Covenants, Journal of Finance 63, 2085-2121.
