Today we are announcing the date for the opening of PRI’s 2023 reporting window: 14 June 2023 (UK BST). The window will be open for 12 weeks and will close on 6 September 2023.
Preparing to report
The PRI has taken steps to improve reporting for signatories in 2023, streamlining the number of indicators and publishing the 2023 Reporting Framework in January. We encourage signatories to use the 2023 Reporting Framework modules and support materials to prepare for the opening of the window and to complete their reporting as soon as practicable and in consideration of your own internal approval processes.
Signatories with no users in the Permissions System, including those reporting for the first time in 2023, will be contacted by email on 17 May with information on how to manage their staff’s access to the Reporting Tool.
New and updated support materials
On 24 May, we will publish new and updated guidance documents on the Investor Reporting Framework page.
Updated documents:
- Reporting Framework modules updated with descriptive 2023 assessment multipliers will be available to download[1]
- the Assessment Methodology will be updated with descriptive assessment multipliers
- the Logic Guide will be updated with editorial amendments
New documents:
- Guidance on the minimum requirements in the 2023 Reporting Framework (minimum requirements have not changed for the 2023 Framework).
- Guidance on human rights-relevant indicators in the 2023 Reporting Framework and how they correspond to the three-part responsibility outlined by the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs).
Other upcoming guidance
