Australia and New Zealand perform well in global measures of corruption, and both countries trade on reputations for honesty and integrity. However, rates of corruption are reported to be rising and we are trading increasingly often with countries that are considered to be highly corrupt. This future[inc] paper examines what is currently being done, and what should be done to mitigate corruption in Australia and New Zealand.

Are Australia and New Zealand corrupt?

Are traditional financial reports still a valid part of organisational communication and accountability? Or has the financial report become an impenetrable collection of numbers and words, prepared only for compliance purposes, and only understood by a few technical elite? Is financial reporting keeping up with the increasingly complex demands of business? What effect is digital disruption having? Noise, Numbers and Cut-Through looks at the effectiveness of financial reporting as a communication tool and responds to these questions by examining the experiences of two leading companies and their assault against disclosure overload.

Revolutionising Reporting: Why Care? is the first in the Future Directions series of the future[inc]. Developed out of a series of meetings globally and two stakeholder events with a range of directors, investors and practitioners held in Auckland and Sydney in March. There are historic changes coming in what the financial statement auditor will say publicly in their report. For listed entities there will be a section where the auditor explains the main areas they looked at in their audit of that company for the year, and a summary of the audit procedures they undertook to address the matter. Since auditing began, consistency in how auditors report to shareholders has been a predominant feature. Audit is complex, technical work and consistency in explaining the role and the results of the audit work has taken prevalence. This is being turned on its head! The increasing demands for transparency of process, to help justify trust, has led to the introduction, for the first time, of unique commentary in the audit report to shareholders. A major change to market communication. These new requirements will be effective from December 2016 year end’s, though many firms and companies will be trialling it this year. Download your copy.

Digital Currencies: Where to from here? explores the most popular of the digital currencies, Bitcoin, and outlines the current state of play in Australia, New Zealand and internationally. In addition to explaining how digital currencies work and examining the implications that they have on our tax and financial systems, the paper looks at the roadblocks currently preventing digital currencies from obtaining “mainstream” acceptance, and poses the question “Is it the future or is it a fad, and where to from here?” There is no doubt that digital currencies are not a fad, they are here to stay. They offer businesses and retailers faster, safer, cheaper processing and potentially enable them to tap into new markets. However, digital currencies pose challenges for Governments in areas such as banking regulation, consumer protection and tax. Also, due to the anonymity that their use affords, digital currencies are often associated with organised crime and terrorist financing activities. For accountants and auditors, one challenge is that owners of the currency are not personally identified or traceable but, on the flipside, the distributed ledger (called the blockchain) is transparent, displaying to everyone all transactions.
