Filers

Thousands of companies file statutory reports to U.S. regulators in XBRL format today. Structured, standardized reporting in the U.S. began with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) program for banks in 2005, followed by the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) for public companies and investment management companies in 2009. These agencies have expanded these programs to require more information and more types of entities to report in XBRL format. In 2021, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) began requiring public utilities to report their financial statements in XBRL through their e-Forms program.

SEC The SEC requires XBRL for reporting by public companies, investment management companies and credit rating agencies. XBRL US developed the initial releases of the US GAAP Financial Reporting Taxonomy which is now managed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). Public companies and mutual funds began reporting in XBRL in 2009 and XBRL US provides education and training programs to help filers.
