The Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a 20-digit alpha-numeric code based on the ISO 17442 standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and refers to a unique identification given to legal entities participating in financial transactions. In simple words, the publicly available LEI data pool can be regarded as a global directory, which greatly enhances transparency in the global marketplace.
