Identity in one lookup
A Australia bank running customer due diligence can confirm a corporate entity, its registration and its parent in a single GLEIF lookup — far faster than manual checks.
Beneficial ownership and Level 2 data
The LEI's Level 2 'who owns whom' data supports beneficial-ownership and group-structure checks.
Faster onboarding, cleaner screening
For customers, holding a current LEI clears the identity step immediately and reduces cross-border screening friction.
Key takeaways
• The LEI verifies corporate identity instantly.
• Level 2 data supports ownership checks.
• It speeds onboarding for customers.
• It reduces screening false positives.
