LEI Solutions: KYB (Know Your Business)
Simplify KYB with the Global LEI System
Streamline client onboarding, reduce compliance costs, and gain confidence with the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI). The LEI is the global standard as a source of truth for verified organisation identity, supported by an accredited and regulated KYB process.
RapidLEI trusted by the world's leading institutions
RapidLEI helps you unlock global organisation identity data to provide insights, transparency, streamline compliance and boost trust
The Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a unique, regulator-recognised Organisation ID assigned to legal entities worldwide. But more importantly, the LEI itself is the result of a rigorous KYB (Know Your Business) process performed by RapidLEI, the largest accredited LEI Issuer in the Global LEI System.

RapidLEI – The Leading LEI Issuer
Make verified Organisation Identity your KYB advantage
Working with RapidLEI gives you so much more than just the leading LEI management platform
Replace Fragmented KYB checks with a standardised, accredited process
Today, due diligence involves pulling data from multiple sources, conducting expensive registry checks, or relying on self-reported documents. With RapidLEI you replace these fragmented checks with a single, standardised, globally verified process. You can then focus resources on managing risk, not duplicating verification efforts.
Benefit from verified, globally recognised organisation identity
Counterparty risk comes from uncertainty: "who is who" and "who owns whom". RapidLEI gives you a globally recognised, regulator-supervised identity record that you can trust. Because LEIs are validated annually and backed by an accredited KYB process, you gain confidence in the organisation data, reducing the risk of fraud, error, or outdated records.
Speed up compliance and onboarding with auditable records
Manual KYB checks can slow onboarding, delaying time to revenue. RapidLEI’s automated solutions let you integrate organisation identity verification directly into your workflows. This means you can verify suppliers faster, reduce manual steps, and meet compliance requirements efficiently, while maintaining a clear, auditable record of due diligence.

Strengthen Entity Identification Across Borders
The LEI enables standardised, cross-border entity identification. This sits on top of the local variations in registration numbers, formats, and names. The LEI reduces friction when onboarding international clients or counterparties.
Boost Data Accuracy and Reduce Duplication
LEI data is updated and maintained by accredited LEI Issuers like RapidLEI, ensuring standardisation around up-to-date and verified records. Integrating LEIs helps prevent duplicate records and mismatches in your system, enhancing the integrity of KYB data.
Simplify Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) Mapping
The LEI system’s Level 2 data (“who owns whom”) provides clarity on ownership structures, helping KYB providers more easily map out corporate hierarchies and fulfil UBO obligations.
Enhance Regulatory Compliance
Many jurisdictions and industries reference LEIs in over 300 regulatory reporting requirements. Offering LEI integration keeps your platform aligned with evolving regulatory expectations.
Improve Client Trust and Transparency
Displaying LEI data in your platform signals a commitment to transparent, trustworthy business relationships, and is a key differentiator in the KYB landscape.
Enable Future Interoperability and Innovation
By adopting LEIs now, KYB providers future-proof their platforms, ensuring readiness to integrate with next-generation digital identity solutions like verifiable credentials, blockchain-based registries, and global B2B payment networks.
