This webinar was first broadcast in November 2023 as part of ACCA's global flagship virtual conference – Accounting for the Future
Overview
Companies around the world need to do better at reporting research and development (R&D), an essential activity for innovation and growth. The failure to report R&D spending despite extensive discussion of the topic in annual reports could undermine the perception of potential investors and other stakeholders towards a company’s future prospects. This panel session will explore this phenomenon, examine the causes and discuss practical recommendations for harnessing the value of disclosing R&D activities and the associated amounts.
