Legal Entity Identifier (LEI / GMEI) Registration Services

Get your LEI number quickly and efficiently through SCG Fund Services.

A Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)—also known as a Global Market Entity Identifier (GMEI)—is a 20-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies legal entities engaged in financial transactions. Issued under ISO 17442 by accredited Local Operating Units (LOUs), the LEI system improves transparency and enhances risk management across global markets.

Who Needs an LEI?

You are required to obtain an LEI if your entity:

• Trades securities or derivatives
• Is listed with a stock exchange
• Participates in financial markets or reporting
• Owns or controls other financial entities
• Operates an investment fund or offshore company in jurisdictions like the Bahamas, British Virgin Islands (BVI), Cayman Islands, Panama, or Seychelles
