the time of the “traditional annual report” seems to be drawing to a close. recent ‘opt-in’ law changes have completely changed the communication landscape for public companies looking to engage with their investors.

The opportunity beyond compliance. Early indications out of Australia, the USA and Europe are that around 6 - 9% of shareholders are bothering to put pen to paper and opt in.

That’s actually good news – because this change in the reporting regime actually delivers a powerful opportunity to re-allocate money previously earmarked for print-based compliance reporting into offering investors a clearer understanding of the investment, and the company behind that investment.
