Building Sustainable Success®
We uniquely integrate financial expertise and communication skills
to help companies build sustainable success.

It has been estimated that 25% of an entity’s market value is attributable to accounting book value. The remaining value estimate is based on factors such as strategy, product innovation, employee talent, customer loyalty and other similar matters.

The importance of enhanced business reporting is hard to understate. Expanding and improving disclosures is not just an exercise in protecting corporate reputation. Future management of corporate value will include focused attention on the scope, depth, and usefulness of corporate disclosures.

 

The Global Reporting Initiative

“The Global Reporting Initiative’s (GRI) vision is that reporting on economic, environmental, and social performance by all organizations becomes as routine and comparable as financial reporting.”

 

Financial and
Sustainability Reporting

DELIVERED RESULTS
Obtaining and evaluating business information is critical to the success of any organization. Whether you are communicating externally to investors or reporting agencies or performing internal analyses, compiling the right information in a timely manner is paramount.

Financial Leadership has delivered results on numerous external and internal reporting projects. We organize the right team of subject matter experts who can zero in on your project needs and deliver results on-time.

The Future of Financial Reporting
The future of financial reporting will lose some of the hardened lines that have existed between internal and external reporting. Information flows will be harnessed to feed simultaneously the needs of internal managers as well as investors and regulators. Driving some of these changes will be the increased use of XBRL and XML technologies.

The marketplace is also demanding business information beyond standard balance sheets and income statements. Environmental impact and a company’s overall social responsibility are critical to success. Properly managing such factors requires solid, timely information. This is why Financial Leadership is focused on bringing sustainability reporting to the forefront of the corporate communications agenda. We support the efforts of organizations such as the Global Reporting Initiative. Through training at the United Nations Environment Program (Geneva) we have added new competencies to assist companies and banks evaluate the impact of environmental and social risk factors on credit decisions.

The future of financial reporting is exciting and Financial Leadership stands ready to meet your needs.
