In 1975, intangible assets accounted for 17% of company value.
Today they account for 87%.
Intangible assets are everywhere
They are the primary drivers of company performance, but are:
-
Typically off the balance sheet;
-
Not captured within profit and loss accounts; and are

This leads to material hidden value and significant hidden risks.
