What is Client Disclosure Reporting?

Client Disclosure Reporting, or CDR, is an easy to use reporting method that helps professional service businesses understand and share their revenue breakdown by industry.

You don’t need any specialist knowledge and all the tools you need are free to download and use.

Report on your client mix while safeguarding confidentiality
