Annual Report on Annual Reports 2009

Reporting in difficult times

Downturn, financial sector crisis, credit crunch, recession, mergers, acquisitions, delistings, raw material costs, currency variations, risk spreading, long-term sustainability vs. quarterly guidance, corporate responsibility vs. financial irresponsibility... Tough times for report makers. In difficult times the annual report remains a much-needed beacon for shareholders, investors and other stakeholders. They are looking forward to last year reports -and next year prospects.

Who can compete?

Created in 1996 by a bunch of financial analysts, communication guys and report freaks and watchers, the Annual Report on Annual Reports is a truly independent report survey and probably the most global annual report competition.
The cut-off date for report submission is June 30, 2009. Enrollment is free.
Any listed (or not) company from any country and any industry is welcome to take part.

How will reports be judged -and rated?

Stop! Due to the instability, unpredictability, uncertainties, and for comparability and credibility reasons, reports from the financial sector are this year not considered for competition. Call this another "stress test"?
