Best Investment Paper 2019
For a look back at all of last year's winners, across 15 different categories, please visit the 2019 Savvy Investor Awards page. The winning paper overall was this one from PGIM:
The Future Means Business: Investment Implications of Transformative New Corporate Models (PGIM)
Most papers examining “megatrends” do so at a macroeconomic, regional or industry level; the bottom-up perspective is often overlooked. This paper examines the evolution of corporate business models and explores how investors should respond to the radical changes that are taking place. CIOs and other institutional investors should not only take heed of these firm-wide changes, but take proactive steps to address them head-on, such as properly accounting for intangibles within corporate risk models, adapting ESG approaches and metrics to different types of firms or industries, and identifying the opportunities and threats presented by the world’s superstar firms.
The report is a pleasure to read, and represents the combined insight of 25 PGIM professionals, as well as survey respondents from over 300 companies across the public and private sector in the United States, Germany, and China.
