    Corporate Reporting Guide to forward-looking information Don’t fear the future: communicating with confi dence* *connectedthinking pwc I have for many years urged companies to use the narrative aspects of their reporting in as an imaginative and informative way as possible so that they may provide their investors with real insight into their business and the strategies that they as Management have adopted. I welcome this publication as a powerful contribution to helping make this a reality. Tony Good Chair of Accounting Advocacy, UK Society of Investment Professionals Evolving good practices in corporate reporting should provide investors with far greater transparency on a company’s internal performance targets and how management assesses the company’s performance against those targets. This publication provides very useful guidance on how management can provide the information valued by investors, in a practical way. Lindsay Tomlinson Vice-Chairman, Barclays Global Investors Europe Introduction The corporate reporting debate is gathering pace worldwide whether in the form of legal requirements, guidance or evolving good practices. Aspects of this debate are, understandably, causing concern amongst preparers of annual reports. Not least of these is the provision of a “forward-looking orientation” which, in our experience, many companies fi nd a real challenge. But what does this mean in practice? Will it require providing competitively- sensitive information? What about the reliability of such forward-looking information? Will companies face the threat of litigation? Will this mean making profi t forecasts? Put simply, the reporting of of examples from some of these forward-looking information is a companies that demonstrate aspects critical component of effective of what we believe is effective communication to the market communication of the future that and this “how to” guide has been others can learn from.

  • Kids Activities in London
    Kids from 7 to 11 years old IN LONDON Step into Land of the Lions Land of the Lions is here! ZSL London Zoo’s newest and most breath-taking exhibit transports visitors from the heart of London to India’s vibrant Sasan Gir, where they can get closer than ever before to mighty Asiatic lions. Shrek’s Adventure London London's newest family attraction! Step into the kingdom of Far Far Away and enjoy a brand new madcap Shrek adventure where amazing DreamWorks animation, captivating story-telling and a good dose of Donkey’s cheekiness awaits. The London Dungeon (all ages) It has all the ghastly gore and black comedy of the old Tooley Street attraction in a bigger and more high-tech package. A jokey celebration of torture, death and disease, visitors can journey back in time to London's plague-ridden streets (rotting corpses, rats, vile boils and projectile vomiting all come as standard) and meet some of the city's unsavoury characters, from Guy Fawkes to demon barber Sweeney Todd. A cast of blood- splattered actors are joined by 'virtual' guests, such as Brian Blessed as Henry VIII, and as well as the 18 different shows and 'surprises' – which could see you on the run from Jack the Ripper or getting lost in London's Victorian sewers – there are two rides to raise the adrenaline: a turbulent boat trip down the Thames towards execution, and a dark drop ride plunging three stories in the pitch black. Note that the London Dungeon is unsuitable for young or easily scared children.
