Reporting framework consultation
The new Reporting Framework was produced following extensive consultation with signatories and other stakeholders, with close to 200 submissions made and incorporated during the consultation. The framework addresses different aspects that have been raised during this process, namely:
- Strengthen the reporting objective of the PRI: The new framework is moving away from self-assessment and asks for narrative or factual information. The focus of the framework is to deliver relevant information for signatories and the public.
- Introduce further differentiation between asset classes: The new reporting framework has introduced asset class supplements to best capture the different responsible investment activities in asset classes.
- Introduce further differentiation between direct and indirect investors: The new reporting framework will provide different routes reflecting different business practices employed by direct and indirect investors.
The information below presents the feedback received during the consultation on the reporting framework.
Reporting framework open consultation feedback
There was high level of involvement of the various stakeholders during the consultation on the new framework this autumn. The PRI received close to 200 responses to the consultation, as well as a series of informal comments from signatories. A detailed summary of the feedback can be found here.
Addressing the feedback
In collaboration with the Reporting Technical Committee and the different advisory groups, PRI has taken a number of measures to address the suggestions that came out of the open consultation period. The approach is described in the document Way forward released in December 2011.
Reporting Technical Committee and advisory groups
The PRI Secretariat was supported by a Reporting Technical Committee, consisting of industry experts with reporting experience. While the Reporting Technical Committee was the main advisory body, the PRI also received input from dedicated asset class and regional advisory groups. The Secretariat oversees the review process. See the list of Reporting Technical Committee members for the development of the new Reporting Framework. The consultation on the outputs will be supported by a renewed technical committee; more information will be made available on the ongoing consultation page of this website.
Ongoing consultation on outputs and assessment methodology
We are continuing our engagement with signatories, with ongoing consultation on different aspects of the new framework, including its outputs, assessment methodology, and verification and assurance. More information regarding this consultation can be found on the
ongoing consultation page.
