Apply for your Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)
An LEI is an internationally verified, G20-endorsed unique identity code. The LEI is rapidly becoming a key identifier in the global financial ecosystem. LEIs are mandatory for any entity looking to trade in financial transactions. Now get your LEIs in hours, not days.
Who needs an LEI?
Any legal entity engaging in financial transactions or operating in today’s global financial ecosystem must have an LEI. It includes:
✔ Financial intermediaries (CSDs)
✔ Banks, investment companies, and lenders
✔ Trade OTC derivatives (except private individuals)
✔ SMSF (Self Managed Superannuation Funds) traders and trustees
✔ Investment Vehicles, mutual funds, hedge funds
✔ Pension schemes
✔ Commodities trading
✔ CFDs (Contract for Differences)
✔ Securities transactions, SFTR reporting
✔ Entities listed on a stock exchange
Why LEI is required?
The lack of transparency during the global financial crisis became a problem for financial institutions. To prevent this from happening again, the G20 established the LEI system. The primary goal is to simplify, standardize, and facilitate the identification of any legal entity globally.
