The New Reporting Reality: Skills and Structures Every Organization Needs Now

(1 CPE) While financial and non-financial reporting requirements evolve, the need to deliver clear, reliable information across financial, operational, and sustainability domains has never been more important. But teams are still using the same organizational structures, processes and tools they’ve always had, which is making this work increasingly difficult and risky. Even without formal integrated reporting roles, the responsibilities behind them are already landing on financial reporting, SOX/compliance, audit, and sustainability teams who are facing the dual challenge of working through this new reality while also optimizing their teams, processes and their technology.

This session brings together leaders across these functions to explore how the modern reporting roles are evolving and what skills professionals need to succeed in this interconnected environment. Panelists will discuss rising disclosure demands, the convergence of financial and nonfinancial data, and how AI and automation can reduce workload while strengthening reporting quality. 

Whether you’re in SEC reporting, internal audit, sustainability, or operations, you’ll walk away with practical insight into how roles are shifting and how to prepare your team for what’s next.
