RapidLEI is fully automated and connects to Companies House to make it fast and easy for you to register, manage and use your LEIs efficiently. No paper form filling, printing, manual signing and scanning means more time to spend on running your business!
Get started with an LEI management account to keep all your LEIs in a safe place. You just need your name and email to open the account.
Start a registration by typing your Legal Entity name and in real time we search UK Companies House to find your company. Or your fund or trust name. We auto-fill the reference data we need to make it easy for you.
Most applications are auto-verified, so once your newly issued LEI number is then published to the Global LEI Index – the master global directory of all Legal Entity Identifiers accessible by all stakeholders.
LEIs are G20-endorsed identifier codes that provide a publicly available verifiable source of ‘who is who’ (organsation identity) and ‘who owns whom’ (organisation group structures). The system is operated by the Global LEI Foundation (GLEIF). A limited number of organisations (like Ubisecure RapidLEI) become LEI Issuers (also known as LOUs in the LEI ecosystem) after passing a stringent accreditation process.
200,000 organisations, funds and trusts in the UK have been issued a Legal Entity Identifier. This is driven by the need to be compliant with regulation, enable trust in their identity and assert their legitimacy in financial transactions and global trade, especially important in the post-Brexit world. LEIs are used in many B2B Know Your Customer and onboarding processes.
Your LEI is an asset, and it needs to be managed properly and securely. Creating an account is the first step to get your LEI, and it just requires your name and email address. Your account will give you the ability to renew your LEI with a single click, and order more LEIs for group companies quickly.
In order for every organisation in the world to obtain an LEI code we need an LEI issuing platform that can scale. We built a solution that automates the LEI application process by connecting to the worldwide business registries in real time. This makes applications faster, and it makes the operational costs much lower. We pass on these savings to you by providing LEIs at a much lower cost than any of our competitors.
RapidLEI is one of about 8 LEI Issuers, also known as LOUs (Local Operating Units), accredited to issue LEIs to organisations, funds and trusts in the UK. RapidLEI was accredited in June 2018 and we sit alongside the London Stock Exchange Group in our support for growing the LEI ecosystem. We supply registration, renewal and other LEI services for legal entities wishing to utilise LEIs in the UK.
The Global LEI Foundation (GLEIF) was established by the Financial Stability Board and the G20 in 2014. The GLEIF is tasked to support the implementation and use of the LEI.
Since launching in 2018 the GLEIF has consistently recognised RapidLEI has the fastest growing LEI Issuer. RapidLEI is the #1 issuer of new LEIs globally and the #1 LEI Issuer for data quality. You can track LEI growth and data quality statistics from major LEI Issuers at rapidlei.com/stats.
LEI codes can be issued to registered companies and subsidiaries, non-profit organisations, sole proprietors, international branch offices, funds and trusts. Ask us if you are not sure about your status.
The RapidLEI platform uses automation and connects directly to Companies House to make the LEI application process quick and easy. Many LEIs are issued in just minutes, but if company identity data needs additional human-based checks, it takes a little longer. If this is the case, we still issue your LEI in just hours, and almost always on the same day as application.
Only the LEI Issuer managing the LEI can renew the LEI. If you want to renew an existing LEI with RapidLEI, you must first transfer it to RapidLEI. This is a simple process and our web forms guide you through the process (click for LEI transfer process).
You can use our Search LEI tool to find out the current status. We connect to the live global LEI index to check, and depending on status our system will help you renew, register, or reactivate a lapsed LEI quickly (click for urgent lapsed lei issues).
Ubisecure is an identity services technology provider and the GLEIF accredited organisation behind RapidLEI. We develop SaaS, cloud solutions, and on-premise software for Identity & Access Management. LEIs are central to our vision on providing security and identity services for the organisation identity domain.
You can buy LEI codes from RapidLEI directly, or you can buy from our global network of dozens of certified Registration Agent partners. RapidLEI works only with Registration Agent partners who add local expertise such as language support, regulatory understanding, currency support and more.
