Case Study: Nielsen achieves greater accuracy and efficiency in XBRL reporting with Donnelley Financial Solutions' ActiveDisclosure

Nielsen Boosts Accuracy With ActiveDisclosure

Nielsen, a global leader in consumer intelligence, struggled with inefficient, error-prone SEC reporting processes that relied on cutting, pasting and re-keying tables. To streamline their 10-Q and XBRL workflows they engaged Donnelley Financial Solutions and adopted the ActiveDisclosure compliance platform.

Donnelley Financial Solutions implemented ActiveDisclosure (including ActiveLink, review tools and the Online Reviewers Guide), enabling single-source updates that flow throughout documents, easier collaboration and pain-free review. The solution eliminated manual re-keying, reduced the risk of errors, sped preparation and validation of XBRL filings and allowed Nielsen to review, test and live-file directly to the SEC—with 24/7/365 support from the DFIN service team.
