DIMO, one of Sri Lanka’s leading conglomerates, continued its winning run in Integrated Reporting as it took home the “Overall Winner” award for the sixth consecutive year, at the recently-concluded 2020 edition of the prestigious “CMA Excellence in Integrated Reporting Awards” organized by the Institute of Certified Management Accountants.
In addition to this main award of the evening, DIMO also won the “Special Award for Best Concise Integrated Report”, “Award for the Ten Best Integrated Reports” and “Special Award for Integrated Thinking”.
DIMO’s Group CEO, Gahanath Pandithage and Senior Accountant, Ishara Danansooriya attended the event which was held recently.
DIMO’s continuous efforts to maintain the highest level of adherence to the Integrated Reporting Framework issued by the International Integrated Reporting Council and how the company has thereby articulated integrated thinking in its recent Annual Report have paved the way for winning these accolades. DIMO is widely known as one of the few companies that redefined integrated reporting in Sri Lanka by adopting the International Integrated Reporting Framework (International <IR> Framework) when it was first introduced. DIMO Chairman & Managing Director Ranjith Pandithage stated, “Winning the most prestigious award of the night once is tough enough given the high standards we have to achieve and the intense competition out there. Therefore, winning it 6 consecutive times is an incredible achievement that speaks volumes of DIMO’s commitment to Integrated Reporting and our team’s outstanding efforts in adhering to the high standards. We are always searching for new ways to review and adopt best practices in both local and international reporting and disclosure guidelines in both financial and non-financial aspects so that information of the highest quality is given to all stakeholders”. He added that each content element of the Annual Report demonstrates how DIMO is geared to deliver the strategy.
The CMA places great importance in the conciseness of the Annual Report and DIMO’s Annual Report certainly stands out in this regard.
