LEI guides
Each guide answers one question about the LEI and is built on published sources: what the authorities, the firms and the issuers themselves state.
- LEI by company typeWhich UK companies, trusts, charities and pension schemes need an LEI, what each one has to provide, and how many already hold one. Based on GLEIF data.
- LEI for your bank or brokerWhat UK banks, brokers and investment platforms ask of a company, charity or trust before it can trade: who needs an LEI, when, and how each firm wants to receive it.
- LEI issuers comparedWhich LEI issuers serve UK companies, how many active LEIs each one manages and what each charges for a new LEI and a renewal, as published on its own website.
- UK LEI statisticsHow many UK entities hold an LEI, how many are active or lapsed, new registrations per year, the most common legal forms and the largest LEI issuers. From GLEIF data.
