Arab News | What We Are Reading Today: ‘The Data Economy’



Authors: Isaac Baley and Laura Veldkamp

The most valuable firms in the global economy are valued largely for their data.

Amazon, Apple, Google, and others have proven the competitive advantage of a good data set. And yet despite the growing importance of data as a strategic asset, modern economic theory neglects its role.

In this book, Isaac Baley and Laura Veldkamp draw on a range of theoretical frameworks at the research frontier in macroeconomics and finance to model and measure data economies.
