During our event, we hosted the following sessions:

Arjan Brouwer: Corporate Reporting and the integration of financial and non-financial information
Our first keynote speaker was Arjan Brouwer, Professor External Reporting at VU Amsterdam and partner at PwC. As a strong advocate for (corporate) transparency, Arjan shared his vision on corporate reporting and the integration of financial and non-financial information.

Peter Paul Boon: Tax Transparency
Peter Paul Boon, Global Head of Tax of NN Group, was our second keynote speaker. In 2019 Peter Paul and his team published a Total Tax Contribution report, which made NN Group the first multinational in the Netherlands to do this. NN Group ranked number 1 for three consecutive years in the Tax Transparency Benchmark, published by the Dutch association of investors for Sustainable Development (VBDO). During The Future of Corporate Reporting 2022, Peter Paul shared his insights and vision on tax transparency.

Starting 1 January 2023 multinationals are required to make all new calculations for Pillar 2. On June 1st, 2022, we will further discuss this issue in the Round Table: Pillar Two in Tax Reporting Solution (Dutch session). Click here for more information or to sign up.

Integrated Reporting: the journey of Arcadis
Laura van Oorschot (now Senior Manager at KPMG) shared her experiences from her role as Director Group Reporting & Accounting at Arcadis. Over the past few years, she has been (co-)responsible for the Annual Integrated Report and she was one of the key drivers of Integrated Reporting and Sustainability Reporting at Arcadis. During the Future of Corporate Reporting, Laura walked us through the development of the annual report, the changing finance process (also driven by iXBRL requirements) and her department’s leadership role in this change. Furthermore, she elaborated on how technology (Sturnis365) has enabled this process and created the opportunity for Arcadis to publish their annual report one month earlier than before.

Sustainability Reporting: Internal Control and Audit
Sustainability reporting, a must for many organisations and soon, even an obligation in Europe. Understanding sustainability standards is one thing, but preparing for a limited or reasonable assurance audit is another. In this session, Jelle Mattias Holwerda RA guided us through the requirements an auditor has in order to issue an audit opinion on a sustainability report. This was aimed at financials as well as non-financials, management as well as project leaders, and other sustainability professionals who want to be better prepared for such audits. Jelle Mattias is a Dutch Chartered Accountant (Register accountant) with experience in the private sector with EY and public sector with the Dutch Ministry of Finance. He is also lecturer at Nyenrode Business University.
