Reflections on 2008 annual report season

By Dominic Jones on June 3, 2008

THE online annual reporting period in Europe and North America is drawing to a close — and except for an elite group of forward-thinking companies it has been a disappointing season.
This was the first year where many companies had the option of delivering their reports on the web as the default option. This was also [...]

Wienerberger proves bricks aren't boring

By Dominic Jones on April 14, 2008

AS CORPORATE reporting moves increasingly to the web, annual report designers are learning that it’s incredibly difficult to create attention-grabbing online communications.
We often see their feeble attempts in the form of online annual report splash pages, covers or homepages. If you’re lucky there’s some dancing text and flashing video, but most often even these attempts [...]

NIRI members' discontent posted on Web

By Dominic Jones on March 4, 2008

ABOUT eight months ago, I let my membership of the National Investor Relations Institute (NIRI) expire. I wasn’t happy with the direction of the organization, and I felt that being a member would restrict me from speaking my mind about it on this blog if I wanted to.
Since then, however, I’ve kept my mouth mostly [...]
