Podcast: Regulatory Reporting and Legal Entity Identifiers

Mon, 21 May 2012 00:57:00 GMT

An interesting piece for the Regulatory / Tech Wonks among you.

The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) expects financial services firms to begin regulatory reporting using legal entity identifiers (LEIs) in mid-July. Likewise, the European Financial Stability Board (FSB) hopes to receive the necessary blessing from the G20 for its efforts in June.

Rob Daly over at the Daly Post Podcast discusses industry preparedness with Graeme Austin CEO of the International Securities Association for Trade Communications Europe and founder of FS Benchmarks, a consultancy that specializes in research and operations benchmarking.

For a bit more background on Legal Entity Identifiers, you might be interested in this 2011 paper from the Federal Reserve Board which summarizes the current environment of entity identification and the
problems that are currently encountered in both the private and public
sectors:
