Financial Disclosure 101: An Introduction to
Financial Disclosure
A financial disclosure statement is a statement of personal financial
interests. Public officials who are required to file disclosure statements must
include information such as sources of income, sources of gifts, debtors,
creditors, and investments. Financial disclosure statements are not
campaign finance statements or election statements.
Filers are required to file each year and provide information for the complete
preceding
calendar year. In other words, a person who is required to file in
2014 will be filing a statement disclosing financial information for the
complete calendar year of 2013.
About 11,000 public officials and employees are required to file disclosure
statements each year.
