Getting Up to Speed on China: How Boards Can Learn to Manage Risk and Seize Opportunity

For many foreign investors, China represents the great unknown. Even global companies that have invested heavily in China find that ascending the learning-curve can be a gradual process.

Hiding in Plain Sight: How Retailers Can Identify and Better Manage Their Assets

While retailers usually have a good understanding of where their saleable goods are, many can’t identify or put a value on “hidden” assets such as real estate, equipment and fixtures. Failure to manage these hidden assets can be very costly, but relatively few companies are taking the initiative to get a handle on them — often because the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. Store A has one procurement method, and Store B has another. An enterprise strategy can transform the way ...
