| This annual report comprehensively discloses the factors that affect the financial and non-financial performance of Barloworld Limited.
It has been prepared using the guidelines for sustainability reporting developed by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).
The report covers the activities of the Barloworld group, including all subsidiaries and partially owned entities for the financial year ended 30 September 2008. Partially owned entities are treated as an integral part of Barloworld for reporting purposes. In the financial reports, associates and joint ventures are equity accounted. The business principles and practices described can be verified by reference to board minutes and established standards and policies (both written and unwritten). The report discusses the implementation of these principles and practices including the financial and non-financial measurement mechanisms used by the company to assess its performance. Our internal confidence level on the accuracy of the information presented is high. Barloworld has strong administration systems and the management systems that yield the financial data reflected in the report are well established. Some elements of the report have been externally verified by independent auditors. The independent auditor’s report on financial data is presented in terms of International Financial Reporting Standards. In addition, some non-financial data has been reviewed. There have been no significant restatements in this report except as set out within this website. To view the accounting policies and definitions click here.

All aspects of the guidelines have been addressed in the report unless indicated.
