Victor Krakovich is a predoctoral researcher at Universidade de Vigo, student of the Interuniversity Doctoral Program in Economic Analysis and Business Strategy
In this paper, he develops a structured literature review of human capital measurement from a financial perspective. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
While human capital is widely recognized as a key driver of firm performance, existing research remains fragmented across disciplines with differing conceptual frameworks and valuation logics.
They address this gap by introducing an investment cycle framework that distinguishes three stages of human capital valuation: ex ante (signals such as education and skills), investment (training and compensation costs), and ex post (realized outcomes such as wages, productivity, and firm value).
Using a systematically constructed dataset of articles from Scopus, and applying LLM-based classification, we map the literature across stages and levels of analysis. The results highlight important research gaps and provide a coherent foundation for future empirical work.
