Introduction

LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) is an international identification number which is used for legal entities (e.g. companies or government entities) operating in financial markets. Institutional investors including banks, insurance companies and pension funds use LEI codes as they are required for supervisory reporting. LEI codes are also useful in the calculation of solvency capital requirements.
