KPMG has issued the first edition of the publication Integrated Reporting: Performance insight through Better Business Reporting. It focuses on the challenge of providing better corporate reporting. Many who read this may not be familiar with the topic but, with the publication by the International Integrated Reporting Committee (IIRC) of its Discussion Paper, it is likely to receive more attention in the future. In the past, KPMG has looked at this as “Better Business Reporting” which captures the essence of the subject.
The first edition provides some background on Integrated Reporting with a series of short articles by some of the firms’ specialists. After a brief summary that explains what Integrated Reporting is, Michael Bray sets out the case as to why senior executives and non-executives ought to be interested.
