Summary

Formerly published by Cambridge Business Publishers, now published by Sage Business Sustainability Reporting & Analysis reframes sustainability reporting as more than an extension of traditional financial reporting. Instead, it presents sustainability reporting as a new form of business communication designed to support cooperation among a broad set of stakeholders—including investors, managers, regulators, NGOs, and the public. The book explains why sustainability reporting has emerged in response to the limitations of financial reporting's narrow focus on financial performance and how sustainability information helps address environmental, social, and governance challenges that affect long-term business value and societal outcomes. Students learn not only the rules and standards of sustainability reporting, but also the real-world problems those standards are designed to solve. Designed as a foundation text in this emerging field, the book equips students with a deep understanding of sustainability issues, reporting practices, and how sustainability information is used to guide decision-making across the sustainability reporting ecosystem.
