FERC to adjust forms to reflect digital filing practice
The US Federal Energy Regulation Commission (FERC) has proposed updates to several of its financial forms used for annual and quarterly reporting, bringing them into line with digital reporting practice.
FERC notes that, following its adoption of XBRL and the implementation of stricter validation, certain instructions in the financial forms no longer reflect the way regulated entities actually file, and are not aligned with the intent of the filing requirements. It aims to correct those discrepancies and modernise any outdated areas.
This is a great example of the continuing adjustment and improvement that keeps digital reporting systems healthy and meeting user needs. Got comments? They’re due by 24 August 2026.
