In addition to the main contest categories, we have also instituted a number of additional awards to highlight individual achievements in the preparation of annual reports and to draw attention to the best practices, - says Vasily Kalabin, the Project Research Manager. – “At present, the annual report is a mandatory element of the corporate governance of a successful organization and one of the key tools for interaction with the parties concerned as well as an important component of a company’s positioning, a way to communicate key messages to the public.
