Introduction

This document is intended to provide guidelines to European regulators in the implementation and roll out of the reporting standard using XBRL across Europe.

The set of recommendations included in this document aim to facilitate the implementation of European National Supervisors to adopt XBRL in any of the reporting frameworks. The following sections will provide guidance on the use, understanding, preparation, and extension of their filings in eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL).

This guidance is in the form of notes in association with the pertaining requirements clause and uses the terms “should” (recommendation), “may” (allowance) and “can” (possibility). Organizations wishing to implement this CWA would be expected to consider all recommendations where the term "should" is used.

COREP, FINREP (and Solvency II or other future) XBRL taxonomies are offered to European regulators for national implementation. The first releases (2006) of the COREP and FINREP XBRL frameworks have proven that a standardized technical roll-out package is needed to increase the adoption rate and avoid implementation variances, which have a detrimental effect on the overall cross-border effectiveness of using one reporting standard. As well this roll-out guide tries to promote the economies of scale for a better adoption.


Contents

Scope

This CWA is a general guide to XBRL oriented towards national regulators on how to implement, extend and manage XBRL taxonomies. The guidance and recommendations included in this CWA have been created for regulatory filings in the context of European supervisory reporting.

In this document, “regulatory filings” encompasses authoritative financial reporting standards and generally accepted accounting principles/practices (or GAAP), regulatory reports whose subject matter is primarily financial position and performance and related explanatory disclosures, and data sets used in the collection of financial statistics; it excludes transaction- or journal-level reporting, primarily narrative reports (for example, internal controls assessments) and non-financial quantitative reports (for example, air pollution measurements).

How to start with XBRL. Supervisory Perspective

This section describes how the XBRL standard can be implemented from the regulator's perspective.

First, we present different levels of XBRL adoption, to help define the supervisor's strategy.

This is followed by a description of the minimum steps required to facilitate initial understanding of the XBRL standard, and guidelines describing the review and the likely impact on existing infrastructure and internal information systems.

Finally, we suggest additional considerations which should be taken into consideration during preparation and planning, to help regulators establish which services they need to implement to enable reporting entities to adhere to the XBRL standard. Figure 1 presents an overview of the activities described in the section.
