I hope somebody can help me, given that I have been struggling for a lot of time now.
I need to calculate how often a VC firm X (variable name: FirmName e.g. 10X Venture Partners LLC) has invested in the industry Computer_Related (1== Computer_Related Industry). Only new Investments (NEW ==1) by that VC firm X should be taken into account and only the investments that were made 5 years prior to the focal investment of VC firm X. The focal transaction should be excluded from the counting.
I have a database including all transactions from VCs between 1995 and 2013 which I grouped based on FirmName. Within each group, I have tried to make a loop.
pid = unique identifier of that transaction by that VC
Code:
gen test_Computer_Related = 0 forvalues i = 1/`r(max)' { count (pid != `i' & Computer_Related ==1 & NEW ==1 & TransactionDate `i' - InvestmentDate <= 1825), by(FirmName) replace test_Computer_Related = r(N) in `i' }
E.g. for 10X Venture Partners LLC (pid = 3) --> there are 2 new investments in the Computer_Related industry that have been made <5 years prior to that investment
My question is: how should the loop look like to get for each focal investment of investment firm X the number of new investments that VC firm X has made before the focal investment of VC firm X.
I am aware of the rangestat plugin and therefore I also created a variable InvestmentDate_minus_5years. I, however, have not been able to apply that.
