What is an LEI?
An LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) is a unique 20-character alphanumeric code that identifies a legal entity. Under UK MiFIR, a firm with transaction-reporting duties needs an eligible company client’s LEI before executing an in-scope trade on that client’s behalf. Your broker can confirm whether your transaction needs one.
