The FRC's report, 'Effective Company Stewardship: Enhancing Corporate Reporting and Audit', contains seven key recommendations including the recommendations that companies should take advantage of technological developments to increase the accessibility of the annual report and its components and that there should be greater investor involvement in the process by which auditors are appointed. The overall aim of the recommendations is to provide more balanced and comprehensive information to investors. Click for FRC press release and the FRC's report (both links to FRC website).
