The Annual Report of Leiden University reports on its teaching, research, innovation, knowledge valorisation, infrastructure, staff and finances. It is the cornerstone of the planning and control process, and is a detailed financial statement on the policy that has been enacted.

Leiden University’s Annual Report 2021 has been published. In this report, which consists of a general section and a financial section (the financial statements), the University provides a record of its research, teaching, knowledge transfer, operational management and policies in that year.

An annual plan ensures that Planning & Control is embedded in the organisation. The plan states who provides what and when. This means that the right information is available at the right time, allowing for the proper financial management of the University.

The Budget report is issued every four months and gives an overview of the financial results of the University as a whole and of the individual units. This provides information about our results and helps us maintain financial control.

Information security is essential for Leiden University. This means not only that we deal with (sensitive) information in a secure and conscious manner, but also that incidents are reported as soon as possible. You can read below how to report incidents.

Financial reports are an important aspect of project funder reports. Grant providers generally require an auditor’s report. This is the opinion of an external auditor on the financial statement for a project.
