What is LEI Certification?
A Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a globally standardised identifier used for legal entities in certain financial transactions and regulatory contexts.
LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) is a unique 20-character identification code used to identify a legal entity participating in financial transactions. It helps banks, financial institutions and regulatory authorities identify Organisations accurately and improve transparency in financial transactions.
Why can this service matter?
Some legal entities may require an LEI because of the nature or value of their financial transactions or because a regulated counterparty requires it.
Who may need it?
Legal entities that have an applicable financial or regulatory requirement for an LEI.
