This book focuses on the accounting change processes that drive
integrated reporting in the public sector. The Integrated Report is a
tool that allows public sector entities to quantify and convey those
aspects of their organization, strategy, governance and performance that
lead to the creation of public value over time. To be successfully
introduced, integrated reporting must follow a specific path of
accounting change. The context in which public sector entities operate,
and the unique relationship between the public sector and the
environment, redefine the accounting process of change to deliver an
integrated report. The authors provide a fresh look at integrated
reporting on the basis of the accounting change processes that drive it,
helping academics and practitioners to gain a deeper understanding of
the challenges and benefits in terms of public value creation.
