About stakeholder expectations (1) On reading a corporate report users should be able to tell that: • The company has not profited at the expense of the environment, human rights, a lack of integrity or society; • There are adequate controls in place to monitor and manage material risks and opportunities;
About stakeholder expectations (2) • Remuneration is linked to overall performance which includes social, environmental and financial aspects; • There is an interactive communication with the stakeholders who are strategic to the company’s business; and • The company is conducting a sustainable business
82 international companies have joined the Integrated Reporting Pilot Programme which launched in October 2011 • Pilots will explore <IR> in the context of their organisations and be critical to the development of an Integrated Reporting Framework • Leading companies and investors developing and exchange good practice in this two year programme
Actual and expected benefits of <IR> so far • Two primary benefits identified: • reporting against KPIs which align to the corporate strategycooperation and collaboration across the business • Numerous other benefits include: • telling the story about what the core business does • risk assessment focused on material risks • wider knowledge of non-financial business drivers • discussing the future considering finance and sustainability • knowledge across the business and sharing best practice
