XBRL Europe announces a DIGITAL HUB for ESEF implementation as a first step, and issues an invitation for content

In response to the anticipated adoption of ESMA’s European Single Electronic Format “ESEF” rules, XBRL Europe can announce their decision to create a ESEF Digital Hub. The Hub will provide webinars, free of charge for the attendees, on a range of topics and should become a key open source of knowledge for all stakeholders involved in the preparation and consumption of the new data that ESEF will generate.

Speaking today, Bruno Tesnière, XBRL Europe Chairman said:

“XBRL Europe is already seeing interest in ESEF surge.  Naturally, we would like a digital approach to the information sharing that is going to be necessary.   XBRL Europe is here to play a key role in the challenge ahead – making ESEF’s implementation a success. So the webinars on our Digital Hub should become a key resource for people involved in preparing or using ESEF data.

Organisations that are interested in providing digital content for the Hub:

• should read the Guidance and suggestions for content document available at this LINK
• and must fill the application available at this LINK
• and send it to Gilles Maguet XBRL Europe Secretary General at this email ADDRESS.

Any organisation can make a proposal and membership of XBRL Europe or other XBRL organisations is not required (even if recommended!).
