New metrics for a sustainable future
Capitalism and finance are undergoing a fundamental reshaping, demanding new methods to measure economic performance and value creation. This will profoundly affect financial managers, from capital budgeting decisions and staff incentives to metrics reported to capital markets.
As sustainability integrates with strategic decision-making, the boundaries between these areas will blur. This talk explores the drivers of this trend and its implications for financial managers, drawing on research from the Oxford Initiative on Rethinking Performance and academia.
The webcast is the first in a series co-hosted by the University of Oxford's Saïd Business School and AICPA & CIMA, as part of a partnership that includes a joint quarterly online course on ESG and Sustainable Financial Strategy.
