Currently, too much corporate information is given in coded, and often impenetrable, language that’s designed to meet the letter rather than the spirit of regulatory requirements. It would be refreshing if corporate performance were to begin being communicated in a way in which the layman could understand it. Perhaps integrated reporting is a step along the way; and the CVO acronym will one day become as well-known as CFO and COO, on the seas of the Pythons’ mythical wide Accountancy. -- Gerry Brown * International Investment *
