Analysis of FTSE reporting shows honest communication, warts
and all, has an integral part to play in raising levels of trust in
business
Black Sun has been tracking the evolution of corporate reporting
for more than 13 years, examining how companies within the FTSE 100
are responding to a changing environment within reporting
legislation and regulation. This year, in particular, has presented
companies with numerous challenges going into the 2019 reporting
cycle.
Following on from last year's debate on governance reform
and the government's push for an economy 'that works for
everyone', companies have had to implement the reporting
requirements of the EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive for the
first time, while both the draft Guidance on the Strategic Report
and the draft of a revised UK Corporate Governance Code have been
published, fuelling further debate.
