Guidance - Variable Interest Entities
This DQC guidance is designed to address the introduction of the ConsolidatedEntitiesAxis in the 2020 US GAAP Taxonomy. US GAAP taxonomies up to 2019 included in the VIE section of the taxonomy a balance sheet location axis to facilitate reporting the balances on the balance sheet of the portion applicable to the VIE. This was originally designed to allow the use of the Consolidated VIE line items in conjunction with the BalanceSheetLocationAxis. Effective with the 2020 US GAAP Taxonomy, the recommended approach is to discontinue use of the BalanceSheetLocationAxis and instead use the balance sheet line items with the ConsolidatedEntitiesAxis and VariableInterestEntityPrimaryBeneficiaryMember.
