Integrated reporting (IR) holds businesses accountable for their impact on people and the environment, there seems to be tremendous benefit to organisations that commit to IR and do it well. Studies have shown that companies that adopt integrated reporting practices actually outperform those that do not, and also have more long-term investors.IR is the way of the future. It is changing the way we think about capitalism and the world of business – not in terms of how much money an organisation is making, but what value it is creating. By getting business managers and CEOs to think about their company in terms of its sustainability.

We invite you to join us for a free webinar with Mark Graham, Associate Professor at the University of Cape Town, Graduate School of Business (UCT GSB). He is a former Head of the College of Accounting at UCT and currently teaches on the MBA, EMBA and various Executive programmes at UCT GSB. Mark is also the current chair of the adjudicating panel for the annual EY Excellence in Integrated Reporting Awards.

On Wednesday, 15 July 2020 he unpacks the critical role that integrated thinking and reporting can play during the current socio-economic crises. Quite aside from the initial objective of integrated reporting to hold businesses accountable for their impact on people and the environment, there is tremendous benefit to organisations that commit to IR and do it well. Studies have shown that companies that adopt integrated reporting practices actually outperform those that do not, and also have more long-term investors.

To attend, RSVP here.
