RESOURCE SESSION (NO CPE) - The Evolution of Finance: Rethinking Financial Performance and Value Creation with Oxford

This session is for resource purposes only, there is no CPE.

This is presented by Amir Amel-Zadeh, Associate Professor of Accounting with Saïd Business School of the University of Oxford.

We are witnessing a fundamental reshaping of capitalism and the finance function at organizations requiring new ways of how we measure economic performance and value creation. This will have profound implications for financial managers in organizations from how they make capital budgeting decisions, how they incentivize staff, to what gets measured and reported to capital markets. As sustainability considerations become integrated into strategic decision making the boundaries between the sustainability, strategy and finance will become ever more blurred.

This talk will discuss what is driving this trend and what it means for financial managers drawing from work at the Oxford Rethinking Performance Initiative and academic research.
