Regulatory Reporting Using LEI in Singapore identify legal entities and counterparties in relevant reporting workflows supervised by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), particularly under the MAS Securities and Futures (Reporting of Derivatives Contracts) Regulations.
Reporting frameworks in Singapore
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), through MAS Capital Markets Group — Markets Conduct Department, oversees the frameworks that reference the LEI. The headline regime is the MAS Securities and Futures (Reporting of Derivative Contracts) Regulations, alongside prudential and statistical returns.
Where the LEI appears
As the reporting-party and counterparty identifier across derivative, transaction and prudential reporting.
The consequence of a bad LEI
Reports are rejected at DTCC Data Repository (Singapore) Pte Ltd, the prescribed MAS-licensed TR, and the obligation is unmet until the LEI is reinstated.
Keeping reporting clean
Annual renewal and accurate reference data prevent the lapse that causes most reporting failures.
