Creative accounting

of ‘ethical concerns’
and‘damaging of trust’

Window dressing/creative accounting:
Companies may involve in creative accounting and manipulate the data which can affect

Ignoring Inflation:
Traditional financial statements may not fully account for the impact of inflation on the
value of money over time, particularly in periods of high inflation.
Complexity for Non-Experts:
Interpreting financial statements requires a certain level of financial education. Non-

financial jargon.
