Abstract

In the context of the implementation of the concept of sustainable development, the business unit activities are interpreted as a three-component system, including the economic, social, environmental segments of the economy. This trend led to the transition to the socio-economic paradigm of financial statements, which predetermines its deep transformations, one of which is to find ways to recognize natural capital and disclosure of information on its influence on the value of the business as a whole.
