Accelerate Virtual 2023: Unity in Reporting

Kurzbeschreibung:

Neue Mandate und steigende Erwartungen der Anleger haben einen Paradigmenwechsel in der Unternehmensberichterstattung bewirkt. Finanzen, ESG und Risiko haben sich einander angenähert.

Now’s the time for unifying, decisive action. Join a panel of your peers, industry leaders, and reporting experts during three sessions. It’s an opportunity to gain market insights about the latest annual reporting period while establishing a new focus to drive your integrated reporting and performance management.

Agenda: 

Introduction

Session: Unify teams: Break your silos

The benefits of integrated financial and sustainability reporting will only be realised when finance, sustainability, and risk teams work in unison. Speakers will discuss sharing ownership of integrated reporting, establishing seamless and focused collaboration, and sharing proven methods for overcoming operational silos. 

At this session: 

• Address the biggest roadblocks limiting cross-functional collaboration at your organisation
• Identify when you should work closely with other teams—and when it makes sense to limit contact 
• Learn how industry leaders have successfully navigated silos within their organisation

Session: Unify process: How will the CSRD impact digital finance transformation? 

Whether the CSRD directly impacts you or not, it’s been a game-changer for expectations placed on integrated reporting. During this roundtable, the panel will assess the broader impact that the CSRD and other global ESG mandates will have on digital finance transformation, share specific ways they’re adapting processes in response to the mandate, and discuss how to be proactive in the face of constant disruption. 

At this session: 

• Hear the results of a benchmark, exclusive Europe-wide survey and understand market concerns and priorities for digital finance transformation
• Learn how ESG regulations are shifting the goalposts—and how companies like yours are responding 
• Identify how to turn the challenges of disruption into opportunities to gain a competitive advantage
