The Financial vs Human Capital project

ABOUT THE FINANCIAL vs HUMAN CAPITAL PROJECT

The Financial vs Human Capital project is concerned with the fact that the competences and knowledge of employees are playing a larger role than ever in the creation of firm value. In some ways, human capital is more important than financial capital, or technology. A major question becomes: To whom does the company belong? It is imperative to take this economic and social aspect of the New Economy into account in corporate governance research, because a single-minded focus on the financial aspect of economic development only serves to obscure something that is far more than just one variable among others in the calculation of economic value.
