The pandemic is likely to change the role of company boards and the way people look at companies. The fourth edition of the CFA Institute investor trust study reveals consumers and employees want to have the power to influence companies. They also believe that CEOs must lead on societal issues such as the pandemic impact on the economy and job automation.

This podcast series provides a guide to the economic and policy developments within the European Union (EU) and is a must-listen for any student, policy maker, legislator, economist, or corporate strategist seeking a greater understanding of the opportunities, risks, and emerging policy initiatives that will affect the 330 million consumers living there and the companies doing or seeking to do business there.
