redovisningsinformation

Redovisningsinformation, often abbreviated as RI, refers to the financial and operational information that companies are required to disclose to external stakeholders, such as investors, regulators, and the public. The purpose of redovisningsinformation is to provide transparency and accountability, enabling stakeholders to make informed decisions and assess the company's performance and financial health.

In Sweden, the requirement for companies to provide redovisningsinformation is governed by the Financial Instruments Trading Act (Finansinstrumentstradekommissionens beslut 2005:10) and the Financial Supervisory Authority's (Finansinspektionen) regulations. The information typically includes annual reports, interim reports, and other periodic disclosures. These reports cover various aspects of the company's operations, including financial statements, management's discussion and analysis, and notes to the financial statements.

The financial statements are the core of redovisningsinformation and include the balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, and statement of changes in equity. These statements provide a snapshot of the company's financial position, performance, and cash flow at a specific point in time. The management's discussion and analysis section offers insights into the company's business, risks, and future prospects, while the notes provide additional information and explanations related to the financial statements.

Redovisningsinformation is crucial for maintaining trust and confidence in the financial markets. It helps investors evaluate investment opportunities, creditors assess the company's creditworthiness, and regulators ensure compliance with financial regulations. Additionally, redovisningsinformation is essential for stakeholders to monitor the company's performance and identify areas for improvement.

Companies are required to submit redovisningsinformation to the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Bolagsverket) and make it publicly available. The information is typically available on the company's website and can be accessed by the public. In some cases, companies may also provide additional information through press releases or investor presentations.
