LEI Code

Highly Assured Verified Organisation IDs

The Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a 20 digit globally verified organisation identification code, endorsed by the G20 & Financial Stability Board, and references a live record of a verified organisation. LEIs are used to identify organisations in regulatory compliance, company governance, trades and transactions, but also now have wider use cases in enabling trusted global trade and supply chain.

In 2018 Ubisecure became an accredited (and is now the #1 LEI Issuer) LEI issuer under our RapidLEI service. The RapidLEI platform ensures organisations can obtain LEIs quickly, easily and accurately. Our algorithms do the heavy lifting – providing automation and accuracy, and reducing the total cost of ownership for the Legal Entity during the application process.

Organisation ID in Onboarding & KYC/KYB/AML

The LEI provides access to verified organisation reference data and connects the numerous different organisation regional and private identifiers used in Know Your Customer and Know Your Business. LEIs both improve and inform onboarding workflows.

Using LEIs in onboarding saves costs and has a measurable impact to people and staff productivity by reducing manual data checking, improving entity data quality. Service providers can view live, verifiable data about clients to ensure higher levels of trust for Customer Due Diligence (CDD).

Ubisecure offers LEI discovery, issuance and management. We also offer support for automated LEI issuance via the GLEIF approved Validation Agent framework. These solutions allow for automated use of accurate LEI reference data in KYC workflows.

The Value of LEI Automation for Banks

How banks can unlock seamless counterparty trades and client lifecycle management using RapidLEI and the GLEIF Validation Agent program.

LEI for Banks

Organisation ID in Banking & Enterprise

Ubisecure makes it easy to not just issue LEIs, but also to discover, consolidate and manage both internal LEIs and LEIs for your banking clients. The LEI management portal provides instant status, reporting and analytics via a single dashboard to gain actionable insights into LEIs. Time spent managing LEIs is reduced, LEI subscription costs are lowered, and the risk of LEIs falling into lapsed state can be well mitigated.

There’s a reason the world’s most trusted banks choose Ubisecure RapidLEI.

“We have partnered with Ubisecure, and we are now a Validation Agent able to provide LEI to our clients, and it just made the process so much quicker and easier. And the feedback that we are receiving from onboarding is that clients are really grateful to have the service… And what benefit I can see from a client’s perspective is – they are going to have to go and get an LEI, but they also have to go through all of our onboarding KYC, sending us a lot of documentation. Who wants to do that twice? We can now get the LEI for them. So, it’s a win-win.”
Deborah Hardy, SVP Citi Bank

“We recognise the importance of LEI in global trade finance and participation in capital markets, so the provision of LEI services complements our business model and improves the level of service we offer our customers.”

Combining LEI and B2B IAM

Organisations can use their LEIs as an authentication method to assert authorised representation to reduce identity fraud and eliminate the costs associated with manual representation workflows.

LEI-based services, including the Verifiable Credential or vLEI, make it possible for individuals to authenticate themselves and assert their rights to represent their organization. Rights could be as simple as approved spending limits, or as comprehensive and complex as condition-based legal electronic power of attorney. Using the same concept as “Sign in with Apple” or “Log in with Facebook”, Right to Represent uses LEI-based accounts to authenticate an individual’s organisation identity, affiliation and rights.

“To help prepare the market for digitalised trade systems, C4DTI is launching a package of new services: [including] A national campaign in partnership with Ubisecure and the Global Legal Entity Identification Foundation (GLEIF) to promote the adoption of Legal Entity Identities (LEIs), the widely recognised and standardised organisation identifier. These will enable companies to speed up due diligence checks, reduce fraud and efficiently track secure transactions of goods and finance.”

LEI Use Cases

Enabling new Organisation ID Use Cases

As a persistent unique key to verifiable “who is who” business data and “who owns whom” parental structures, FIs, trust service providers, Certification Authorities, and technology providers can get significant value from LEIs. Updated at least annually, LEIs will always offer an improved alternative over formats of static data, making the LEI critical for automated and efficient KYC/AML, onboarding and organisational identity assurance.

True B2B IAM: Global Movement Underway

Global Movement for Verified Organisations

The World Trade Organisation and the ICC are pushing to enable paperless trade leveraging the LEI. The eIDAS 2.0 EU digital wallet scheme will enable citizens to use the LEI to express relationships to organisations. The Globally Assured Identity Network (GAIN) also recognises the LEI as the entity identifier within its framework to allow for a transitive relationship between global networks.
