A film for an electronic board, according to one embodiment, has a low dielectric constant of 2.9 or lower at a frequency of 10-40 GHz, and thus can cause the signal transmission rate for a high frequency use, such as fifth generation (5G) mobile communication, to be superior to that of a conventional film for an electronic board. In addition, the film for an electronic board has flexibility and physicochemical characteristics that are greater than or equal to those of a conventional film, so as to be applicable to the manufacture of a laminate of a conductive film such as FCCL and an electronic board such as a FPCB, thereby enabling processability, durability, transmission capacity and the like to be improved.
