Digital Financial Reporting: Facilitating digital comparability and analysis of financial reports [April 2024] Digital financial reporting allows investors and other users of that information to efficiently search, extract and compare companies’ accounting and sustainability-related financial disclosures. Today, many investors, companies and regulators are already getting the benefits. Over 90% of listed companies (by global market capitalisation) are required to undertake digital financial reporting to some extent. The IFRS digital taxonomies facilitate the reporting of information prepared in accordance with IFRS Standards in a computer-readable format. This article provides an introduction to digital financial reporting and the IFRS digital taxonomies. Further resources relating to digital financial reporting and the IFRS digital taxonomies can be found at https://lnkd.in/gbBiZUJg #ifrs #financialreporting #digitalfinancialreporting #standards #ifrsstandards

Update on Digital Financial Reporting Activities from IFRS Foundation Following an insightful article released by the IFRS Foundation two months ago, we’re excited to hear more about their digital financial reporting activities at the next IFRS Taxonomy Consultative Group meeting. Digital reporting feels inevitable, but why is it so crucial? It significantly increases comparability and transparency by standardizing financial data, making it easier to analyse and understand. Enhanced investor confidence and improved accuracy of statistics are key outcomes, as clear and reliable financial reports boost trust and provide a solid foundation for economic insights. Additionally, digital reporting reduces the filing burden, particularly for small and micro entities, simplifying processes and saving valuable time and resources. Remarkably, XBRL is the predominant computer-readable, structured data format for financial information, maintained by XBRL International, Inc. With its adoption spanning over 70 countries, it’s impressive to recognize that CoreFiling supports most of these implementations worldwide. #DigitalReporting #FinancialReporting #IFRS #XBRL #Transparency #InvestorConfidence #Regulation
