The CRD IV framework is broad and every year since its approval, new and updated regulations have been implemented through it (for example, Asset Encumbrance reporting is new in 2015Q1). Regulated firms need to stay on top of the regulatory pipeline and determine:

• whether changes in regulation apply to them;
• what data they already have to meet the regulations;
• adjustments to their systems to meet new data requirements;
• compliance with the XBRL technical standards;
• compliance with the EBA data quality rules embedded within XBRL;
• compliance with additional national regulator validation;
• costs associated to complying;
• risks associated with failure to capture non-compliance errors.

Standalone and embedded processes

The reporting processes needed for CRD IV reporting are very broad, with familiar requirements such as workflow and security coupled with specialist requirements such as XBRL preparation, validation and rendering. Decisions need to be made: whether to create a standalone environment or embed reporting into current architecture; whether to rely on process specialists to provide specialist XBRL capabilities which may be outside their core competence. To provide maximum choice for our clients CoreFiling have aligned with many reporting specialists to whom we provide our professional XBRL expertise.

Our tools can be embedded efficiently into other software such as Oracle, SAP, SAS and EMC to enhance your ROI.

• Run a standalone environment covering report creation, validation, workflow, security and versioning. As requirements mature, integrate into analytical and other processes using our True North APIs.
• Use SaaS (Software as a Service) for rapid deployment of specification-driven report creation, validation and review
• Use your current reporting environment, then embed True North to handle the XBRL requirements, beginning simply using bulk data transfer, gradually introducing further integration.
