This dataset is concerned with the development of networks of interlocking directorates among Dutch companies that have a link with Indonesia. For the year 1948, Nobel and Fennema identified a group of companies operating in Indonesia and a group of companies exporting to Indonesia. The first group contains all in Indonesia operating companies that were listed on the Amsterdam stock exchange with assets over 4 million guilder. The second group consists of the largest exporting companies to Indonesia by sector. They collected the names of directors of 141 selected companies for the years 1946, 1950, 1954, 1958, and 1962. The main sources for these data were annual reports and Van Oss’ Effectenboek. The database contains information about the name and function(s) of the directors, as well as the period in which a person is director at a particular company. The city were the company is located is included in the database as well. Between 1946 and 1962 there is a core of around 200 interlocking directors. Until 1958, the number of interlocks is around 1000, but after 1958 this number declines to 823.
