Summary

For the last decade, XBRL has been looming on the horizon as a fairly benign threat. The XBRL standard and the market’s willingness to adopt it have been too immature for a sweeping mandate in complex jurisdictions such as the United States. Fast-forward to present day, and SEC Chairman Cox says the XBRL mandate is on its way. Regulators, accounting firms, and corporations must now prepare to survive and thrive in the new world of business reporting.

We go beyond the hype and confusion to look at how XBRL can help you transform your business, dramatically simplifying filing and reporting and improving transparency and information access in ways never before imaginable.

Join this timely webcast to learn how XBRL turns flat, one-dimensional information into live, interactive information that reveals its full context. Suddenly, financial data is universally accessible, richly contextual and highly comparable.

You’ll learn:

  • How companies can produce, share, and file more accurate information thereby improving the consistency and integrity of their financial picture
  • How practitioners can free themselves from the re-keying of data to focus on the production of accurate and consistent financials
  • How XBRL will enable analysts, investors, and the masses the ability to access near real-time dynamic financial information
  • How to get in the game incrementally with a pilot phase implementation and gain experience working with XBRL and enabling technologies

Speakers will include:

  • David Blaszkowsky, Director, Office of Interactive Disclosure, SEC
  • Tony Fragnito, CEO of XBRL International
  • Phillip Moyer, CEO and President of EDGAR Online
  • Diane Mueller-Klingspor, VP of XBRL Development, JustSystems

All registrants will receive a copy of the XBRL Survival Guide and White Paper
