Online Workshop on Integrated Reporting for Corporates only 6th & 7th May 2020

We are pleased to inform you regarding our upcoming online Workshop on ‘Integrated Reporting’ for Corporates only.

Date : 6th & 7th May, 2020 (Wed & Thus)

Time : 11:00 am – 1:00 pm (both days)

Integrated Reporting <IR> has gained considerable prominence since the inception of the framework in 2010 as today investors are seeking both financial as well as non-financial information to take a well-informed investment decision.

At CII-CESD, our mandate has always been to facilitate organizations to be future-proof by high level standards of transparency of financial and non-financial information through annual corporate reporting. With this focused objective to scale up adoption of improved corporate reporting in India, we envisage better reporting ecosystem with evolved dialogues and holistic integration of different reporting requirements. 

Integrated reporting is the evolution in corporate reporting. Attempting to connect financial, extra-financial and sustainability matters of business, integrated reporting seeks to present a coherent story of its value creation strategy in short to long term. Primarily targeted at providers of finance, integrated reporting is rapidly becoming an important management tool as much as it is a reporting framework.
  
SEBI’s voluntary requirement for integrated reporting applicable to top 500 companies in India, has been another notable feature of the CII’s work on the subject matter. The soft law has propelled many companies to begin preparing integrated reports and by next year the number of integrated reports is likely to substantially increase.
