What comes next

Expand the scope to additional countries

Our data set currently covers 21 countries. We intend to onboard another 9 countries by the end of the year. Most of them will be emerging markets, a few European. If you are interested to learn more about a specific country, let us know.

Expand measures of corporate performance

At present, we employ three measures of corporate performance: economic profit, interest coverage ratio (ICR), and the Altman Z’’-score. We intend to expand our range of measures by considering additional approaches for zombie identification. Some promising methodologies for this purpose include those proposed by Adalet McGowan et al. (2017), Storz et al. (2017), and Favara et al. (2021). Additionally, we will explore alternative indicators of financial distress, such as Ohlson's O-score, Merton's distance-to-default, and sovereign credit ratings.

Develop thought leadership pieces

The "Our Insights" section contains research highlighting applications of the Crux of Capitalism data. We aim to expand this section continuously to offer detailed analyses of a particular research question related to corporate performance. The upcoming thought leadership piece will explore how examining the economy through the lens of economic profit can add value.
