More on the consultation on the Solvency II XBRL taxonomy

EIOPA logoEIOPA has provided more details on the Solvency II XBRL taxonomy consultation. Speaking at the 5th Solvency II Summit held in London (19 July 2011), Iwona Krasniewska, Senior Expert – Solvency II at EIOPA, told delegates that the consultation on the Solvency II XBRL taxonomy published on the EIOPA website was just a sample of the XBRL taxonomy. The sample describes the Solvency II reporting in the harmonised data format to be used for the transmission of reporting templates. “The current technical consultation aims to provide evidence and information for quality assurance of the taxonomy, identify and mitigate implementation risks (resources, cost, time, etc.) and to investigate mechanisms for XBRL taxonomy maintenance,” she said. “Through the technical consultation EIOPA would like to request feedback from interested parties at an early stage when technical choices and solutions within the taxonomy are being developed.” Consultation period: Friday, 22 July, 2011 – Wednesday, 7 September, 2011 at 18.00 HRS CEST Consultation documents available here.
