Answer:
Disclosure notes
Explanation:
Disclosure notes provide additional information about the financial statements that are not part of them, but can affect them significantly, e.g. outstanding liens on the company's assets, inventory losses, valuation of investments in bonds and other securities, etc.
A very important part of the disclosure notes that must always be included in the financial statement's footnotes is the summary of the company's significant accounting policies, e.g. accounting policies like depreciation methods used, value of goodwill, etc.
