Streamlining your Report: Less Content, More Clarity

As companies are producing larger reports to meet compliance demands, investors and other stakeholders consistently tell us they value clarity, conciseness and accessibility.

Reporting teams are therefore facing a difficult challenge: how do you satisfy expanding disclosure requirements whilst creating a report that people will read, understand and use?

This session moves beyond the default advice of “cutting pages” and instead focuses on how to design reports that work harder: improving usability, sharpening messaging and ensuring that the most important information stands out.

📍 The Goldsmiths' Centre, Britton Street, London, EC1M 5AD

📅 Wednesday 7th October 2026

🕒 9am-11:00am (arrival 8:45am)
