PwC’s Annual Global CEO Survey, now in its fifteenth year, aims to inform and stimulate the debate on how businesses are facing today’s challenges. Over the years, thousands of CEOs around the world have taken the time to share their views with us.
Our 15th Annual Global CEO Survey, “Delivering results: Growth and value in a volatile world”, seeks to understand how businesses are preparing for growth in their priority markets. We spoke to 1,258 CEOs based in 60 countries, and carried out a further 38 in-depth CEO interviews. The survey explores CEO confidence in their company’s growth prospects, and how they’re building local capabilities and creating new stakeholder networks in new markets.
Etude mondiale de PwC sur les priorités des dirigeants d'entreprises pour 2013 PwC France
http://pwc.to/1aR0bpr
La 16ème édition de l’étude mondiale de PwC sur les priorités des chefs d’entreprise montre que, contrairement à l’année dernière, les dirigeants reprennent très légèrement confiance dans l’économie mondiale. Ils se montrent en revanche moins optimistes quant à la croissance de leur propre entreprise. Cette érosion de la confiance touche également les pays émergents.
This report examines managers’ expectations for 2011 and some of the challenges that they anticipate, based on the annual end-of-year survey of UK-based managers carried out by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) in November 2010.
La decimoséptima Encuesta Mundial de CEOs, elaborada por PwC y presentada hoy en el Foro Económico Mundial de Davos, revela una mejora de las expectativas entre los máximos directivos de todo el mundo. Sin embargo, hay algunos matices, según la zona geográfica de la que se trate. Los CEOs españoles y los europeos, por ejemplo, se encuentran entre los más optimistas -en ambos colectivos un 50% estima que las cosas irán mejor en 2014-. En este caso, tiene gran influencia la desaparición de algunos riesgos muy presentes hace tan solo unos meses, como el colapso financiero de la eurozona.
La confianza de los CEOs en la evolución de la economía y de sus negocios en 2014 aumenta aunque con cautelas. El número de presidentes y consejeros delegados de todo el mundo que espera una mejora de la economía global en los próximos doce meses se ha multiplicado por dos en comparación con el año pasado, hasta el 44%, y sólo un 7% cree que las cosas irán peor. Sin embargo, esta opinión no está exenta de incertidumbres. De hecho, los primeros ejecutivos son más optimistas sobre la evolución de la actividad económica global que sobre la de sus propios negocios, que crece respecto a 2013, aunque solo tres puntos, del 36% al 39%.
Encuesta Mundial CEOs - Informes PwC - Informe completoPwC España
Por decimoséptimo año consecutivo PwC ha presentado en el World Economic Forum de Davos su Encuesta Mundial de CEOs. El informe recoge la opinión de 1.344 presidentes y consejeros delegados de 68 países de todo el mundo sobre el futuro de la economía y de sus negocios.

Delivering Results Growth And Value In A Volatile World 15th Annual Globa...Colin McKillop
This report is based on survey
interviews with the Top 104 Automotive CEOs across 31 countries, as well as in-depth interviews with CEOs from companies across the automotive value chain.
Although companies remain cost conscious, they are putting much more emphasis than in recent years on growing market share and preparing for the future, and their change management efforts reflect this. According to an Economist Intelligence Unit survey, the three main goals of corporate change initiatives over the next year are increasing revenue (cited by 55% of respondents), preparing the organisation for the future (52%) and cost reduction (50%). The research is summarised in “Leaders of change: Companies prepare for a stronger future”—the third in a series of change management studies published since 2008 by the Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Celerant Consulting.

Etude PwC Low Carbon Economy Index (oct. 2015)PwC France
L'année 2014 a marqué un tournant en matière de réduction des émissions de carbone dans les économies du G20. C’est ce que révèle le cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC dans la 7ème édition de son étude annuelle « Low carbon Economy index », qui modélise l'intensité carbone des grandes économies – à savoir les émissions des gaz à effet de serre liées à la consommation d'énergie par million de dollars de PIB. En effet, l'intensité carbone a chuté de 2,7% en 2014, soit sa plus forte baisse depuis 2000.
La France fait office d’exemple : elle a réduit son intensité carbone de plus de 9% en 2014, ce qui représente la 2ème plus forte réduction des pays du G20, juste derrière le Royaume-Uni (- 10,9%).

Etude PwC CEO Survey Talent "People Strategy for the Digital Age" (juillet 2015)PwC France
Dans son étude « People strategy for the digital age : A new take on talent » menée à l’échelle mondiale, le cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC constate que, dans un contexte de concurrence mondiale accrue, les entreprises ont désormais besoin de compétences plus diversifiées pour rester compétitives : 73% des dirigeants voient la pénurie des compétences comme une menace sérieuse à la poursuite de leur activité (contre seulement 46% en 2009).
Une des réponses consiste à mettre en place une stratégie de diversification des talents. Pour aller plus loin, les entreprises doivent également se tourner vers l’exploitation et l’analyse des données qu’elles collectent.
Dans sa dernière étude « PwC Golden Age Index : how well are OECD economies adapting to an older workforce ? », le cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC compare l’emploi des seniors (travailleurs âgés de plus de 55 ans) dans 34 pays de l’OCDE.

Dans leur dernière étude « Global Economy Watch », les économistes du cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC ont analysé les performances économiques des cinq premiers pays d’Afrique du Nord – Egypte, Algérie, Maroc, Soudan et Tunisie, près de cinq ans après les débuts du « Printemps arabe » qui a entraîné de grands bouleversements dans toute la région.

La dernière étude du cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC « Global Top 100 Companies by market capitalisation » révèle que plus de la moitié (53) des 100 entreprises les mieux valorisées au monde sont américaines, contre seulement 4 entreprises françaises. Apple reste en tête du classement établi par PwC, avec une capitalisation boursière de 725 milliards de dollars, en hausse de 54% (+256 milliards de dollars) par rapport à 2014.
Etude PwC "Bridging the gap" sur les investisseurs institutionnels (mai 2015)PwC France
Selon la dernière étude du cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC, intitulée « Bridging the gap », sept investisseurs institutionnels sur dix (70 %) – parmi les 60 qui ont été interrogés par PwC au plan mondial – affirment qu’ils refuseraient de participer à une levée de fonds de private equity ou à un co-investissement si ceux-ci présentaient un risque environnemental, social ou de gouvernance.
Méthodologie :
Pour réaliser cette étude, PwC a mené des entretiens individuels avec 60 commanditaires de 14 pays, totalisant quelque 500 milliards USD d’allocation aux gérants ou general partners (GP) de fonds de private equity. Les participants à l’enquête ont répondu sur la base du volontariat, d’où une surreprésentation probable des investisseurs relativement avancés dans leur approche de l’investissement responsable. Le panel était composé à 30 % de fonds de pension, à 20 % de gestionnaires d’actifs et à 7 % de fonds souverains ou publics. Parmi les répondants figuraient de grands fonds de pension du monde entier, comme le CalSTRS (caisse de retraite de l’enseignement public de Californie), l’USS (caisse de retraite de l’enseignement supérieur britannique), la caisse de retraite de BT, le West Midlands Pension Fund, le Wellcome Trust, un fonds de pension suédois et des fonds confessionnels aux États-Unis et en Finlande. Parmi les principaux gestionnaires d’actifs figuraient les sociétés Aberdeen, Hermes GPE, F&C et BlackRock. 7 investisseurs français ont aussi participé à cette étude comme par exemple BPI France, Ardian ou OFI Asset Management (devenu depuis SWEN Capital Partners).

Etude PwC sur l'économie collaborative (mai 2015)PwC France
En dix ans, le concept d'économie collaborative est devenu un véritable marché impliquant de nombreuses startups comme des grandes entreprises internationales. Alors que ce marché représente aujourd’hui 15 milliards de dollars, le cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC estime qu’il atteindra 335 milliards de dollars d’ici à 2025.
