Few projects are more stressful, important, and tied to real deadlines than corporate annual reports. Publicly held companies prepare and disseminate annual reports to shareholders in order to describe the financial activity and state of the business for the previous year. These reports must withstand the scrutiny of federal regulatory agencies, shareholders, and the investment community, though these are not its only audiences.
Understanding the company and the industry, gathering and integrating important information, and working one's way through the approval loop of corporate officers, accountants, and attorneys are often tasks assigned to a member of the legal or accounting staff. while these professionals know their areas of expertise, they are not always good writers or editors. Fixing insider jargon or legalese so that shareholders can make sense of it requires a skilled professional. Many companies hire an outside editor to work with their staffs or to become that staff if one does not exist.
