The Measurement of Intangible Capital
This project seeks to clarify the range of purposes for which firms are likely to be interested in, when considering the valuation of intangible capital, and to consider the implications for approaches to its measurement. Consideration will also be given to whether the industrial or organisational characteristics of the enterprise appear to be important source of differentiation.
