Neither rewarded for positive externalities

nor paid for the damages

Focus on economic, social and

environmental mega forces

Positive and negative externalities give an actual picture of the

Filling the gaps: What is Integrated Reporting

Integrated Reporting <IR> is a new approach to business reporting that is built around the

organisation’s strategy to create and sustain value in the short, medium and long-term

What <IR> is not

Integrated Reporting is an outcome of Integrated thinking and showcasing management approach, not about one Integrated Report

A sustainability report appended to a

financial report or vice versa

A marketing, advertising or PR

initiative that obscures a more balanced view of the company’s performance

Reporting on qualitative information and emphasis

on carbon saved, trees planted, water saved, etc. – reporting for the sake

of reporting

What it is:

Business case for <IR>

The internal business case

Historical financial information on its own fails to provide a

complete picture of business value

Integrated Reporting offers the opportunity to align reporting around strategy and value creation, to

demonstrate how the organisation uses capital and the extent to which it should continue to be invested in the

organisation.

Telling the value creation story

Supporting a more informed assessment of

value

Efficientcommunication of

resource allocation

65% respondents in an <IR> survey have seen positive impacts

in their engagement with other stakeholders.

70% have seen more connections between different

departments, leading to a broadening of perspectives.

95% of respondents in the survey say they have a better understanding of

how their organisation creates value due to their Integrated Reporting

journey.

<IR> Thought leadership publications

KPMG survey of business reportingThe report looked at corporate responsibility information to the extent included inannual reports, on the basis that this should address those issues that the organisationconsiders to be material to shareholders and investors. Many companies also provideadditional information, aimed at a broad range of stakeholders in a separate report.

*Source: KPMG survey of business reporting 2014, KPMG International

“Many South African companies have seen Integrated Reporting as an opportunity to take a hard look at their full reporting suite in order that it was not purely additive. One company in our

survey had managed a 70+ page reduction in the size of their full financial statements.”

Integrated Reporting has not led to reporting bloat

The future of corporate reporting: towards a common vision

The report offers a range of views from opinion leaders in their respective fields withregard to themes, and their preferred direction for corporate reporting. The reportbegins with the premise that the current reporting model needs to be improved. But it isa matter of debate as to how – and how far – it should change. The objective inpresenting the report is to encourage a debate.

*Source: The future of corporate reporting: towards a common vision 2013, KPMG International

“…one weakness that Integrated Reporting focuses on, by telling the company’s story

comprehensively and more effectively connecting all the information that is important for understanding the long-term health of the

company.”

Report highlights

“Many of those extolling the need for Integrated Reporting

want to see a greater emphasis on Environmental, Social

and Governance (ESG) issues.”
