  1. XBRL for regulatory reportingin Belgium Update on the CBSO latest developments and related projects Camille Dümm Central Balance Sheet Office (CBSO)

  2. Agenda • Context • CBSO Project - Objectives and timing • CBSO Project - Taxonomy • CBSO Project - Processes • Related projects

  3. The CBSO at a glance • Legal context: • Gathering and individual spreading of annual accounts • Drawing up statistics based on data contained in annual accounts

  4. The CBSO at a glance • In practice: • The Central Balance Sheet Office collects 320.000 annual accounts from 295.000 non financial companies • 85% of them are already in electronic format (text file) • Transition to IAS/IFRS to foresee: • For consolidated accounts of quoted companies: 160 companies concerned • For statutory accounts

  9. The CBSO Project - Why XBRL • Purposes of the XBRL project • Introduce flexibility in the process • Make the maintenance easier • Harmonization of the data format and exchange with other regulators • Prepare the electronic filing of annual accounts drawn up according to IAS/IFRS

  10. CBSO Project - Stages 03/2005Draft Taxonomy presentation to the members of the Belgian jurisdiction 09/2005Feedback analysis and new taxonomy architecture 01/2006Official publication of the Taxonomy be-fr-pfs-ci-2006-01-01 on the website 2006 Adaptation of the internal process (data entry via Internet, validation, rendering) 04/2007 The proprietary standard currently used by NBB will be replaced by XBRL

  11. Agenda • Context • CBSO Project - Objectives and timing • CBSO Project - Taxonomy • CBSO Project - Processes • Related projects

  12. CBSO Project - Taxonomy description • be-fr-pfs-ci-2006-01-01 • According to Belgian GAAP • Financial Reporting • Primary Financial Statements • Commercial and Industry • Technical assumptions • Compliant spec 2.1 and FRTA • Multilingual • Modular structure

  13. CBSO Project - Taxonomy architecture

  14. CBSO Project - Website http://www.xbrl.be

  15. CBSO Project - Available information • All taxonomy files • Instance documents • Use cases • Empty instance documents according to the format (full or abbreviated) • A DecisionSoft viewer allowing to visualise the taxonomy in a user-friendly way

  16. CBSO Project - Available information • The new template for the filing of annual accounts • The PDF file • A reference manual explaining the differences in the new layout • A technical protocol • Containing the constraints and requirements which cannot be integrated in the taxonomy

  17. Agenda • Context • CBSO Project - Objectives and timing • CBSO Project - Taxonomy • CBSO Project - Processes • Related projects

  18. CBSO Project - Process PDF Software package (private) Instance document XBRL files Taxonomy Upload Data Entry CBSO Database Validator

  19. CBSO Project - Modules • Publication according to the legal mission • Template published by the NBB based on elements clearly defined in the law • Data processed in order to draw up statistics • Data must be validated through arithmetical and logical checks • The CBSO has developed a software used to input the data of annual accounts as alternative to private software • The output is a file compliant with the legal requirements

  20. CBSO Project - Modules • Rendering • PDF files as output • Restrictive layout of the annual accounts • Use of metadata and pre-coded forms • Objectives • to insert most of the rendering parameters in the taxonomy instead of managing them outside, • to allow multilingualism • to reduce processing time when there is a new taxonomy version.

Rendering structure 1 XSL Transformation Taxonomy linkbases 1 XSL Transformation be-fr-pfs-ci-2006-01-01-presentation.xml .../out/presentation.xml 1 XSL Transformation be-fr-pfs-ci-2006-01-01-reference.xml .../out/reference.xml be-fr-pfs-ci-2006-01-01-label.xml .../out/label.xml 2* XSL Transformation Instance Document PresentationInstructions.xml Company.xml 3 XSL Transformation To execute at each taxonomy version To produce a PDF file 4 XSL-FO Company.pdf TransformedCompany.xml * one file per form and per language

  22. CBSO Project - Modules • Validation of instance documents • XML validation (well formed document) • XBRL validation (according to the taxonomy) • CBSO validation (supplementary protocol) • "In-house" developments • Too many specific checks • Waiting for "Formula" linkbase • To be integrated in a whole process

  23. CBSO Project - Modules • "Data entry" application - SOFISTA-XBRL • Web application • Manual entry or upload • Validation included • Visualisation • "In house" developments • Based on the taxonomy for "standard" sections • Based on metadata for "specific" sections • Principles reused for Rendering module

  24. Agenda • Context • CBSO Project - Objectives and timing • CBSO Project - Taxonomy • CBSO Project - Processes • Related projects

  25. Related projects • Federal Public Service Economy • Directorate-general Statistics and Economic Information • Federal Public Service Finance • Annual accounts as annex of tax declaration

  26. Directorate-general Statistics and Economic Information • Context: • Since 1996, the DSEI (former NIS) collects annually detailed data from companies about activity, employment, investments, based on the annual accounts • As from 2007, XBRL will be used to fill in the annual survey about companies' structure • Objectives: • To promote electronical reporting • To reduce the administrative burden for companies

  27. Directorate-general Statistics and Economic Information • Methodology: • Development of a specific taxonomy based on the NBB taxonomy • Result: • "On line" application
