The XBRL US Public Database is a demonstration of freely available structured financial data. It contains nearly 10 years of public company data submitted to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including US GAAP data from U.S. issuers, and IFRS data from foreign private issuers (now available since the SEC has approved the IFRS Taxonomy). In addition to corporate datasets, the XBRL US Public Database also contains details from the US GAAP Financial Reporting Taxonomy such as the metadata associated with individual concepts; and Data Quality Committee (DQC) error messages from historically submitted US GAAP filings.

Looking ahead, XBRL US will add more public company data from filers in other XBRL International jurisdictions like Japan, Denmark, the Netherlands, as well as collecting data from banks reporting to the FDIC, and mutual funds reporting to the SEC.
