Matriz de Google pedirá a sus subsidiarias pagar por servicios corporativos

Google parent Alphabet is moving to make its disparate parts more accountable internally for spending, according to people familiar with the matter, in an effort to ensure that its more speculative projects are self-sustaining.

     Under the new system, “bet” companies such as Google X, Google Fiber and Google Life Sciences will be charged for using corporate services such as computing, recruiting and marketing, the people familiar with the matter said.

     The changes are part of Google’s transformation into a conglomerate, which took effect in August but won’t be reflected in financial statements until next year. The people familiar with the matter said executives hope to make the bet companies more accountable for their costs, which may lead to more caution on spending.
