Stock Exchanges that collect standard electronic financials and that have automated the analysis and mining of this data have a fundamental advantage over other Exchanges: they are much more attractive to investors.
Investors as well as Portfolio Managers and Analysts all share the same insatiable thirst for the most current reported investment data. Their livelihood relies on the steady flow of timely, comprehensive, and accurate market information - which is exactly what XBRL can deliver.
With XBRL-compliant data, Stock Markets can offer increased value and provide competitive advantages to institutions and private investors. Financial data verified in real-time, converted to XBRL and posted directly to an Issuer's website improves worldwide exposure and provides rapid analysis capabilities to the investment and analyst community.
XBRL adoption drives international confidence in the Exchange and improves perceived market stability - ultimately attracting new capital investments from domestic and international investors.
