Eight good reasons to keep tags on XBRL


Likemind has produced a nice write-up of the breakfast meeting to which I was invited to present the investor perspective on XBRL to a group of corporate communications professionals on 24 September in London. The event itself was very pleasant with a lot of questions and discussions among participants, and I think this comes across nicely in the conversational style of the paper.

A great quote of yours from the Likemind paper, page 7:

"I’ve been asked what kind of control companies will have over the way in which XBRL accounts are presented; what the output is. I have to say, that’s the great thing. You won’t have any control whatsoever!"
