LEI for Insurance Companies in Australia

Part of the Australia LEI knowledge hub — back to the Australia pillar.

Quick answer

Australia insurers reference the LEI in prudential and Solvency-style reporting — identifying the issuers of their holdings — and when trading ALM derivatives reported under the ASIC Derivative Transaction Rules (Reporting) 2024.

Where Insurers Meet the LEI in Australia
