The research is based on the examination of existing approaches and international experience of SDR. Best practice of international companies was taken into consideration. It is concluded that it is necessary to distinguish the objectives of SDR for both internal and external users. Taking into account the information needs of key users groups the most important performance indicators are offered. The analysis has shown that sustainability reporting in Russia is mainly used by public companies and corporations. To spread the SDR further it is necessary to involve small and medium businesses into the process. The study examines new requirements for Sustainability Development Reporting.</abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru">Вопросы устойчивого развития становятся все более важными для бизнес-сообщества. Компания, которая поддерживает прозрачность в этом отношении, несомненно, вызывает большее доверие заинтересованных сторон и возможных партнеров. Кроме того, компания получает возможность контролировать репутационные риски. Решением проблемы информационного диалога может стать составление отчета об устойчивом развитии как новой формы корпоративной отчетности. В статье рассмотрены аспекты составления такого отчета и связанные с этим проблемы.</trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Sustainability</kwd><kwd>Sustainable Development Reporting</kwd><kwd>Corporate responsibility</kwd><kwd>Indicators of Sustainability</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>устойчивое развитие</kwd><kwd>корпоративная отчетность</kwd><kwd>отчетность об устойчивом развитии</kwd><kwd>информационные потребности стейкхолдеров</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Брундтланд Г.Х.
