On March 1, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) proposed the use of the Inline XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) format for the submission of operating company financial statement information and certain mutual fund information.
In 2009, the Commission adopted rules requiring operating companies to provide the information from the financial statements accompanying their registration statements and periodic and current reports in XBRL format by submitting it to the Commission in exhibits to the registration statements and reports and posting it on their websites. These XBRL requirements apply to operating companies that prepare their financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) or in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Filers subject to the XBRL requirements must submit an Interactive Data File, including XBRL tagged data, as an exhibit to the traditional HTML or ASCII format.
