Company Reporting in 2012
Happy new year! This is the first of my (hopefully) many posts to the official Company Reporting blog. Through the course of the next twelve months we plan to post regular updates through our blog so please do check out this section regularly. A summary of important posts will also be regularly featured in our weekly news update.
At Company Reporting we’ve been making changes to the website throughout the year and today we’ve launched a major upgrade to our platform. Alisdair, our technology manager, has posted a note about the changes that have been made to the website so I won’t go into too much detail there. But I would like to briefly touch on the other changes that we are making here as we embark on another wonderful journey that is 2012.
MORE CONTENT. As you are already aware, last year we added two new content streams in CR Common Practices and CR Emerging Issues which have proved incredibly popular with our subscribers. We intend to add many more reports to these new content streams as we continue to cover more topics throughout the year. We plan to add a regular polling mechanism to the site which will allow subscribers to have an input into the choice of topic which will be covered by these reports. We will also be launching an extracts database for our subscribers to access a rich repository of IFRS disclosures sorted by accounting topics.
MORE COVERAGE. An aggressive expansion of our team is being undertaken to ensure a greatly increased number of Monitor reports on individual companies. We have started adding AIM-listed and other slightly smaller companies to our workflow now, which means that in addition to the FTSE350 and S&P Europe 350 companies, we will also track changes on other companies reporting under IFRS. Our plans for 2012 also include extending our services to cover new geographies such as Canada, Brazil and the Far-East.
MORE INTERACTION. We also intend to make Company Reporting much more interactive this year. We’re going to open up the website and all our stories for commenting and voting along with physical networking events at our new London office. We will update you on each of these initiatives in due course.
These are exciting times for the team at Company Reporting and we want you to be part of the change process. We hope you will continue to enjoy using Company Reporting as you have in the past and support us in our new initiatives.
