LEI for Funds in Singapore applies at fund and, where relevant, sub-fund level when the fund itself is a reporting entity. Singapore investment funds use LEIs in applicable workflows under the MAS Securities and Futures (Reporting of Derivative Contracts) Regulations and in investor reference data. Share classes generally do not require separate LEIs unless they are distinct legal entities.
Firm and fund LEIs in Singapore
The management firm holds its own LEI; each fund that is a reporting entity holds one too. Singapore Capital Markets Services licensees, banks, insurers, and Variable Capital Companies (VCCs) all meet the LEI at fund level.
Where the LEI is used
- In the MAS Securities and Futures (Reporting of Derivative Contracts) Regulations derivative and transaction reporting.
- In AIFMD Annex IV and equivalent submissions.
- In investor and distributor reference data.

Yes. TNV-LEI supports bulk issuance, renewal and transfer for fund administrators managing multiple funds and sub-funds.
Where a VCC sub-fund is treated as a separate reporting entity in an applicable regulatory or financial workflow, it uses the LEI appropriate to that reporting entity. Singapore umbrella VCCs can contain multiple separately registered sub-funds.
