idiom: report into

by shailendra.sharma » Sun Aug 11, 2013 10:24 am
I saw this sentence in economist magazine --

A parliamentary committee published a long-awaited report into the failings of the British banking system.

Searched on Google for more uses of "report into" idiom -- I did not find many. (One more such use here: https://www.hsj.co.uk/home/francis-report)

Looking at the context - report into X is used where X is some event or phenomenon. And the mentioned report is the explanation of that X.

Please clarify if my understanding is right. I am a not native speaker of English.
