“Integrity of Communication” today has become a critical element of communication strategies adopted by businesses across the globe.

Regulators across the globe are striving to ensure communication that is fair, true and arm’s length. With questions being raised over the authenticity of reporting data and figures from auditors and credit rating agencies, the next big question will be pointed at IR/PR firms.

While creating the most exquisite financial reports, fancy annual reports, eye-catching CSR reports and websites with smart investor sections, business writing faces the next big challenge of integrity. Every IR Company now has to decide its allegiance – creating communication that is flowery, exaggerated and misleading or communication that is to the point, truthful and yet effective.

Integrity and the ability to communicate honestly will play an important role in building the reputation capital of companies, in good as well as bad times.

For the corporate world, honest communication will result in a good reputation; significantly lower the cost of capital, cost of acquiring talent and even the cost of getting into business partnerships. Maintaining the integrity of communication will have to be a key boardroom strategy to survive these tough times.
