ISIN2LEI.eu to issue Legal Entity Identifiers quickly and easily using RapidLEI’s pioneering technology

LONDON, UK, AND TILBURG, THE NETHERLANDS – 22 November 2019 – Today RapidLEI, the fastest growing accredited Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) issuer, has announced a new partnership with Netherlands-based ISIN2LEI.eu, supporting its thriving global expansion.

ISIN2LEI.eu is well-known for its RegTech service connecting Legal Entity Identifiers (LEIs) to International Securities Identification Numbers (ISINs) for banks and other financial institutions. While the ISIN is a global standard for unique identification of financial instruments, the LEI connects to key reference information that enables clear and unique identification of legal entities participating in financial transactions. The LEI is fast becoming recognised as the default connector of reference data for KYC/AML and counterparty identification.

With its new collaboration with RapidLEI, ISIN2LEI.eu is now also an official Registration Agent for the issuance of LEIs to organisations, further meeting the needs of its financial client base. Banks and finance companies need to acquire and maintain their LEIs in order to meet regulatory demands – such as MiFID II, MiFIR & EMIR – so when they need them, they need them fast or risk holding up transactions.

RapidLEI is provided by Ubisecure, a leading identity management solutions provider, and is now the largest new LEI Issuer outside of the US thanks, in large part, to its ground-breaking technology which automates LEI issuance to deliver LEIs quickly and easily. The technology is also provided as an API to RapidLEI’s growing global partner network, supporting integration of LEI issuance into third-party apps and services.

RapidLEI also recently announced making its banking and enterprise LEI solution, EnterpriseLEI,  available to its partner network delivering efficient, intuitive lifecycle management. Ideal for financial institutions, EnterpriseLEI provides LEI discovery and single view consolidation, automated registration and renewal protection, while reducing the LEI management burden on banks’ administration teams.

It’s this banking solution that made RapidLEI a natural choice of partner for ISIN2LEI.eu’s move to LEI issuance, according to its Founder and CEO, Johan Hol. He said, “Partnering with RapidLEI offers us and our customers the best package – the option of multiyear LEIs, competitive pricing, partner resources and, on top of that, the fastest and easiest LEI issuance process. It will also be fantastic to provide the full EnterpriseLEI solution to our clients who want to self manage high volumes of LEIs with their own full-tool suite. LEIs are the way forward for KYC and client onboarding, and RapidLEI know what the finance industry needs to succeed with LEIs, so I’m very happy to be working with them to bring this extra efficiency to our customers.”

Paul Tourret, Corporate Development Officer at RapidLEI, said, “The ISIN2LEI.eu team’s comprehensive experience in finance and RegTech means they are well-aligned with our mission for transparency and consistency brought about by widespread adoption of LEIs. They will be an important partner to expand use of our unique same session issuance API in the Benelux region”.
