Sumario:[EN] This study aims to uncover parallels between the data issues observed in ORBIS and those in SABI, highlighting the need for cautious interpretation of both databases. By examining differences between entities present in SABI and those absent, insights into database representativeness are gained. Results indicate that SABI, like ORBIS, may not fully represent Spain's business population. Furthermore, analysis suggests that newer, smaller companies are less likely to appear in SABI, impacting data comprehensiveness. Extending this analysis, further variables will be explored to enhance understanding. This study underscores the importance of careful data scrutiny and the consideration of database limitations in research and decision-making processes.
