The article analyzes the problem of the relationship between the development of the digital economy and ensuring the qualitative characteristics of financial statements, such as relevance, predictive value, confirming value, materiality, fair representation, completeness, neutrality, comparability, verifiability, timeliness, clarity and being error-free. The article proposed the authors’ vision of the development of approaches to the formation and presentation of financial statements under the influence of increasing digitalization of the economy. The article justifies the possibility of presenting financial reports in a modified digital format using the user menu. This menu allows the users to get additional information on the activities of the organization, the regulatory framework used; calculate the indicators using alternative methods, compute the ratios for economic analysis on the basis of these indicators, make a forecast for the organization’s prospects, interact on-line with those who compile reports.
