Overview   

Historical financial statements are an important way of showing the financial performance and financial state of an organisation. They however do not explain the business in terms of value creation.  

Integrated reporting provides the answer to this "shortcoming". Based on the International Integrated Reporting Framework, integrated reporting aims to show stakeholders how an organisation creates value over time. When combined with the ESG business review methods, integrated reporting assists stakeholders (especially providers of financial capital) to make more informed decisions regarding capital allocation and use.  

This webinar takes a look at integrated reporting (including ESG) and shows its requirements, importance and also the accountant's role in this service offering. Join Nestene Botha CA(SA) on 4 November 2021 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for a reveal of this next generation annual report.
