General info about LEI code
The requirement for companies engaged in transactions in the European Transactional Markets involving all kinds of securities, stock and Bonds, was put in place in 2014.
LEI stands for Legal Entity Identifier. The framework that governs this requirement is the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR). This framework also governs all legal Entities that perform transactions. This includes companies limited by shares or Guarantee, Trusts and charities and other organizations recognized as legal entities under the Law. An LEI number is a unique identification code based on the global International Standard Organization 17442 Standard.
The code is made up of 20 characters. Its Alphanumeric Nature makes it easier for the Authorities to be able to identify all individual legal entities making transactions. The requirement for all legal entities to register for LEI Codes has made the Global Financial market more transparent and stable.

When is LEI not required?
There are scenarios in which the LEI code is not required. For instance, when companies have a Capital Insurance Deposit, there is no strict requirement for an LEI number as it is not the company that stands as a formal owner. Rather it is the Insurance company that takes up the roles and responsibilities that accrue to ownership. However, if the company wishes to carry out other kinds of securities transaction despite the existence of the capital insurance deposit, an LEI code will be required.
An LEI is also not required when unlisted shares or unlisted fund shares are being traded. Similarly, it is also not required when trading listed bonds or corporate certificates. It should always be remembered that the requirements of LEI codes only apply to corporate legal entities, not individuals. Thus, trading as an individual will exempt you from the requirement.
