LEI Search: All you need to know about the Legal Entity Identifier Search

Search for LEI number: How it works

The entire global LEI database of legal entities participating in global financial markets can be searched free of charge – no registration required. You can use the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI), the name, or even the registered address (street, zip code, city) of an entity as your search term to find the desired result. This allows you to quickly and easily check the validity of an LEI number.
You will receive comprehensive information on the 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 belongs to whom?).
