XBRL Analytics

XBRL Financial Reporting & Analytics

The power of Data Modelling and Business Intelligence meets the nuanced complexities of Prudential Regulation.

SQL Power XBRL Analytics is a fully optimized analytics appliance for financial analysis, data mining, and report distribution. It comes pre-built with dynamic validation and parsing capabilities as well as extraction, transformation and load (ETL) technology to import XBRL instance documents and multiple related taxonomies.

XBRL Analytics is commercially available off-the-shelf and offered as a turn-key, stand-alone appliance or grouped together with other modular SQL Power Suite components to form a complete end-to-end prudential regulatory platform.

After collecting all the filers' business information in XBRL, organizations need to meet the growing demand for timely and accurate analysis and mining of these filings. Traditional, custom-built data warehouse solutions often take too long and cost too much to build, and do not contain the latest information required for timely decision-making. Furthermore, once the taxonomy changes, further development needs to occur to process and report against the new XBRL instance documents.

XBRL Analytics bundles SQL Power's proven ETL technology and XBRL parsing approach with an embedded Business Intelligence (BI) stack from MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR, the global leader in BI and mobile BI technology). XBRL Analytics transforms, loads, and then optimizes XBRL instance documents for further processing - sophisticated data mining, reporting, and analysis.

XBRL Analytics comes out of the box with pre-built MicroStrategy reports, graphs, and dashboards (including mobile versions) allowing for very quick deployments (usually in under 30 days). Further reports, graphs, dashboards, or mobile applications can be easily customized for specific organizational needs via the MicroStrategy stack. The XBRL Analytics platform enables a wide range of stakeholders worldwide to consume and examine comparable XBRL data quickly, easily, and efficiently.
