LEI Number Search: How It Works

The entire global LEI database of legal entities involved in global financial markets can be searched free of charge and without registration. You can use the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI), the name, or even the registered address (street, postal code, city) of an entity as your search term to find the desired result. This allows you to quickly and easily verify the validity of an LEI number.
You will receive comprehensive information on legal form, group or fund structures, and the company’s location. A distinction is made between Level 1 data ("Who is who?") and Level 2 data ("Who owns whom?").
