Investor Brief on the Digitalisation of the Economy: Why it matters for long-term investors and what to look for
Digital transformation is changing the world of work, raising profound challenges in areas such as labour protection, employment transitions, training, and tax policies. The transformation has implications for investors, from the portfolio to systemic levels.
Produced by the Trade Union Advisory Committee to the OECD (TUAC) in conjunction with the CWC, this brief describes how digitalisation is transforming the world of work overall and the challenges that workers are now facing. It looks specifically at highly digitalised companies, such as online platforms, the challenges they raise in terms of fair competition, corporate governance and tax. It outlines issues that long-term investors look for and how they may respond to the digital transformation.
