Steady as She Goes: Long Term Performance Measurement in Finance

THE LONG FINANCE SPRING CONFERENCE

Moving away from short-term performance measurement is regularly advocated in finance. However, 'long' does not necessarily mean 'good'. Most theorists believe that the first step towards governance, control and management, whether scientific or commercial or political, is measurement. If we adopt 'long' does that mean we need to drop 'measurement'? If we adopt 'measurement', are we excising the long term? This event will explore suggestions for reforms of long-term measures in finance.

This event is supported by Bank of America Merrill Lynch, City of London Corporation and Z/Yen Group.
