Modernising Corporate Reporting: The government's “once-in-a-generation" review

impact

On 7 September, the government opened its Modernising Corporate Reporting (MCR) consultation, a wholesale review of the UK's corporate reporting framework. The proposals cover financial and narrative reporting, corporate governance, remuneration and digital communications, and an update on sustainability disclosures, together amounting to a significant rethinking of the corporate reporting in the UK. techUK's initial view is broadly supportive, and we believe the proposals could particularly benefit SMEs. The consultation runs for 12 weeks and closes on 30 November 2026. We will be responding and engaging directly with government, please see below for information on how to get involved.
