The EU roadmap towards nature credits: new opportunities for business and risks management
Currently, if you cut a tree, you get revenues from timber. In some cases, you can even get money when you replace it through “reforestation schemes”. If you keep it alive, allowing it to continue to capture carbon and keeping intact the larger forest ecosystem, you are not remunerated. This is what should change and what nature credits (or biodiversity credits) could make possible. Recently the ...
The glorious revolution of urban regeneration and the value of (Well)being Earnest
Urban regeneration has become an increasingly central lever in tackling the major challenges of our time: social inclusion, ecological transition, and economic resilience. But it is no longer enough to treat regeneration as the mere physical rehabilitation of spaces. What is needed are long-term visions capable of generating widespread well-being, building trust between public and private actors, ...
Geoeconomics: new challenges for the ECB and the Fed
Geoeconomics is an increasingly common perspective in analyses of today’s international economic and political landscape. The recent development of geoeconomics stems from the interplay between economic analysis and political science, shining a light on the international political drivers that help explain economic policy decisions. In truth, this has long been a subject of interest for economic ...
Diversity, equity & inclusion: how to assess consistency between sustainability disclosure and branding initiatives
Over the past ten years, the demand for sustainability reporting has grown exponentially. Companies today operate in an increasingly complex regulatory context: from the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) of 2014, which first drove toward greater transparency in non-financial information disclosure, to the more recent Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) of 2024. The latter ...
Public leadership and the culture of safety: beyond emergency management
The world around us is, by definition, more complex than any model we use to make sense of it. […] In this systemic context, public leadership is called to radical transformation. It is no longer enough to be skilled administrators or efficient decision-makers. What is needed is the ability to interpret and steer change, to be architects of meaning, weavers of trust and relationships. This is a ...
Social Return On Investment: Measuring the Impact of ESG Initiatives
The last five years have seen a tenfold upsurge in the efforts of companies to undertake sustainability pathways, in keeping with the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda. These initiatives range from interventions to encourage greater respect for the environment and/or discourage polluting behaviors, to paying more attention to people, ...
Geoeconomics and protectionism: the harsh law of the hammer
The trajectory of globalization shows that international trade does not follow a linear or irreversible path, but reflects a fragile balance among economic interests, political power, and conflicting ideological visions. After decades of market liberalization and faith in the multilateral institutions born after World War II, today’s global economic order is undergoing profound transformation. The ...
Navigating Uncertainty: the Impact of Geopolitics on Business
How can businesses not only survive but thrive in an increasingly fragmented and unpredictable global landscape? How can systemic risks be turned into competitive advantages and opportunities for strategic innovation? And how can leaders anticipate – rather than merely react to – the major transitions of our time? On Monday, December 1, 2025, at 5:00 PM CET, these questions will take center stage ...
The derivative usage by listed and non-listed Italian Firms for corporate risk management

Digital Transformation: Step-by-step Strategy
To successfully tackle digital transformation, whatever sector they are in, companies cannot limit themselves to taking a few targeted actions, but must rethink the pillars of their business strategy in a context that is (and will be) increasingly digital. To that end, the traditional model of the strategic process must be integrated sector by sector, company by company, with an analysis of the external ...
