Recital 4

(4)The adoption and use of IFRS aims to ensure a high level of transparency and comparability of financial statements. In order to further facilitate their accessibility, analysis and comparability, consolidated financial statements in annual financial reports prepared either in accordance with IFRS adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 or with IFRS as issued by the IASB (both are in the following referred to as IFRS consolidated financial statements) should be marked up using eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL). XBRL is machine-readable and allows for the automated consumption of large amount of information. XBRL is well-established and in use in a number of jurisdictions and is currently the only appropriate markup language to mark up financial statements.
