Integrated reporting (IR) and financial reporting, although sharing some common elements,
serve distinct purposes and cater to varied needs of stakeholders. The Integrated Reporting
Framework (IRF) aims to provide a holistic view of an organization's strategy, governance,
performance, and prospects, focusing on value creation over time. It includes both financial
and non-financial information. On the other hand, the International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) Conceptual Framework focuses on the accurate presentation of financial
information to assist in economic decision-making.
The seven guiding principles of the IRF include strategic focus and future orientation,
connectivity of information, stakeholder relationships, materiality, conciseness, reliability
and completeness, and consistency and comparability. In contrast, the qualitative
characteristics of the IFRS Conceptual Framework comprise relevance, faithful
representation, comparability, verifiability, timeliness, and understandability.
