Relation to other standards and documents
Comprehension of the Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) 2.1 Specification
and various other XBRL Specifications such as XBRL Dimensions 1.0, XBRL Formula 1.0,
Generic Link 1.0 and Table Linkbase 1.0 (Public Working Drafts) is required to
understand the content of this document.
For modelling of data (in terms of methodology and format) as well as physical
representation in XBRL syntax, the EBA followed the approaches applied for various
deliverables of the Eurofiling project1
.
In particular, the EBA applied the Data Point Modelling methodology and the Data
Point Model [DPM] format to the description of the exchanged data2
.
The mapping of this DPM to and XBRL taxonomy follows the general architectural
approach of the preliminary finrep taxonomies published on the Eurofiling website3
, an
approach shared with the EIOPA Preparatory Solvency II taxonomy4
