Integrated reporting : state of play, theoretical underpinnings and empirical insights : the role of corporate governance mechanisms

Includes bibliographical references (p. 115-133).

In recent years, a newly-created corporate communication and value representation tool has emerged, capturing the attention of companies, standard setters, and academic literature. This tool, called Integrated Reporting (IR), aims to provide a holistic overview of business management by including financial and non-financial information in a single report. This book discusses the rise of IR and examines the academic literature in detail. This work also analyses the role of corporate governance mechanisms in correctly representing integrated information. [Publisher's text]
