What is an LEI code and what is this standard used for

The LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) is a globally recognized standard designed to ensure transparency and trust in financial transactions. Based on the ISO 17442 standard, the LEI assigns a unique alphanumeric code to legal entities participating in financial markets, making it easier to identify and monitor risks. Introduced after the 2008 financial crisis, the LEI improves regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and risk management. It is managed by Local Operating Units (LOUs), and InfoCamere is one of the leading issuers, offering direct assistance and real-time data access through its ID LEI service.

What is the impact of the LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) system on anti-money laundering regulations?

The LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) system plays a key role in anti-money laundering (AML) regulations by ensuring the clear identification of legal entities involved in financial transactions. By standardising the identification process globally, the LEI improves transparency and traceability, particularly in cross-border transactions. It helps financial institutions meet Know Your Customer (KYC) and Customer Due Diligence (CDD) requirements, reducing fraud and increasing operational efficiency. The LEI Code enhances regulatory compliance, supporting banks in verifying counterparties and mitigating systemic risk.
