FinTalk by VERMEG

Given the invention of the double entry bookkeeping system came many centuries ago, regulatory reporting is in its relative infancy when compared to financial reporting. So how can we better instigate its growth to catch up?

Joining us on FinTalk this week to consider the complex nature of regulatory reporting and how we can boost its evolution are Avantage Reply’s Vishwas Khanna & Brain Momoh.

Vishwas & Brain delve into cascading accountability from the top down, simplifying the subjective nature of the sector’s use of interpretations, and the cost of misreporting ESG that elevates its importance far beyond CSR.

This episode of The VERMEG podcast covers:

• How the approach to regulatory reporting standards has evolved in recent years, and its current trajectory
• The process of establishing organisation-wide accountability
• Being more proactive and accelerating the growth of the reg reporting sector
• Key differences that emphasise the increasing focus on ESG over CSR
