Abstract

This study aims to investigate the perceived usefulness of the concept of business model (BM) in the field of financial reporting, using a qualitative analysis based on interviews of a panel of financial analysts. They manage to define the BM but consider it as incomplete, especially regarding the competitive dimension of the market. They acknowledge the BM as a useful concept for completing their financial analysis of firms and support its integration within financial reporting based on additional information rather than accounting recognition. However, they emphasize the need for accounting regulation thanks to the discretionary nature of the BM and their reluctance concerning the reliability and understandability of such information.
