The Economist (Intelligence Unit) – The Transparent Business Barometer (2019)


The transparent business barometer: Preparing for the end of easy data is a report from The Economist Intelligence Unit, sponsored by Ant Financial. The report is largely based on a survey of 250 executives conducted in October-December 2018. It explores the opportunities and challenges of a changing data-privacy landscape.

Survey takers come from China, the US, Western Europe and South-east Asia, with a minimum of 60 respondents in each country or region. Half of all respondents occupy the C-suite while the remaining half are senior executives and managers. Technology, financial services and retail are the most commonly represented industries. The main functional roles are IT and technology, general management, and marketing. Half of all executives come from companies with more than US$500m in global annual revenue while half come from companies earning below that threshold.
