56: Why approve investments with negative returns?


Listen Later

Welcome to the 54th podcast on the Corporate Strategy & Transformation study.

In this podcast we look at the problem of superficial financial analysis. One way to save the client money, before they run out of cash in about 16 months, is to stop all investments which lose money. This, however, is a terrible idea which will cause enormous damage to the client’s core business, consumers and the economy. We discuss how we handle this recommendation and what we proposed on the study to fix the problem.
