During the morning session, a dialogue was held between Mr. Paul Druckman, CEO of International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC) and Mr. Tatsumi Yamada, Ambassador of IIRC and a former Board Member of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), followed by a panel discussion on value creation and the future of management and corporate reporting.
