Generally if the board is assessing financial performance using management accounts, they will look at this year compared to last year. I would expect the board to look ar financial performance every month. Annually is inadequate.
There is no single direct measure for sustainability. It is multi-faceted and will depend on the nature of the business.
Eg a mining company would assess reserves of minerals.
A technology or pharmaceutical company might look at patent lives.
Some companies publish environmental information like % of material recycled or amounts of renewable energy used.August 20, 2024 at 11:26 am #710066Thank You Ken
