LEI-CDF Version 2.1
Documentation last updated: 2017-02-23 Introduction
As
the Global LEI System (GLEIS) High Level Principles stipulate, the GLEIS should uniquely and
unambiguously identify participants to financial transactions. The ISO 17442 Legal Entity
Identifier (LEI) standard defines the following set of attributes as the most essential
elements of identification:
- The official name of the legal entity as recorded in the business registry, or with the
fund manager for collective investment vehicles, or otherwise in the entity’s constituting
documents.
- Where applicable, the name of the business registry in which the entity was formed.
- The identifier of the entity in the business registry.
- The address of the headquarters of the legal entity or the address of the fund
manager.
- The address and the country of legal formation as represented in ISO 3166.
- The date of the first LEI assignment.
- The date of last update of the LEI set of information.
- The date of expiry, where applicable.
- The reason for expiry, if applicable.
- For entities with a date of expiry, where applicable, the LEI of the entity or entities
that acquired the expired entity.
The LEI Common Data File format (LEI-CDF) was proposed by the Legal Entity Identifier
Regulatory Oversight Committee (LEI ROC) as the additional standard necessary to support the
GLEIS in maintaining exclusive assignment of LEIs (one LEI per entity) and identifying,
remediating data quality issues, and supporting use of the data. It is maintained and
developed as a technical standard by the Global LEI Foundation (GLEIF) with the collaboration
and oversight of the LEI ROC. The LEI-CDF specifies in more detail:
- The semantic content (definitions) of the ISO 17442 attributes.
- Some additional elements, such an indication of the status of the information, necessary
for effective use of the data.
- The form the information takes at any given LOU, such that it can be made to conform to
a common standard.
All LOUs use this file format to publish LEIs and their reference data.Audience for
this document
The target audience for this standard includes:
- All Local Operating Units (as well as candidate LOUs) of the GLEIS.
- All users or potential users of LEI data.
- All financial regulators who consume LEI data.
Status of this document
This section describes the status of this document at the
time of its publication. Later versions may supersede this document. The most up to date
version will always be available from www.gleif.org.
The file format references and
honors previous completed work published by the LEI ROC in a document entitled "LEI Data File
Format 1.0†(19 June 2014; available from www.leiroc.org).
Terminology and Typographical Conventions
The following typographical conventions are
used throughout the document:
- ALL CAPS type is used for the special terms enumerated above.
Monospace type is used to denote programming language, UML, and XML
identifiers, as well as for the text of XML documents.
Cardinalities
- The cardinality of each element (the number of times it MUST or MAY appear in an XML
data file conforming to this schema) is expressed as a number range in the format {minimum
occurrences, maximum occurrences} in the XML examples shown below the notes of its
containing element. This notation is equivalent to the following explanations in
words:
- Mandatory, unique:
{1,1} - the element MUST appear, exactly once.
- Mandatory, repeatable:
{1,unbounded} - the element MUST appear at least
once. It may be repeated any number of times.
- Optional, unique:
{0,1} - the element NEED NOT appear; it MAY appear once
at most.
- Optional, repeatable:
{0,unbounded} - the element NEED NOT appear. It MAY
be repeated any number of times.
Please note:
- The default cardinality is {1,1} (mandatory, unique). This document highlights when an
element differs from this either by its
minOccurs (minimum occurrences) or
maxOccurs (maximum occurrences) value, or both.
- XML cardinalities apply in the context of any containing elements. This means that a
contained element may have a cardinality of one or more even if its containing element may
be omitted, because the contained element is mandatory given the presence
of the container.
- XML cardinalities enforce a minimum data quality and standards conformance. Other
business rules (as explained below) and data quality checks applied by GLEIF may encourage
stricter cardinalities in live implementations.
Business Rules
The accompanying documentation in addition to this Technical
Specification specifies business rules where applicable for each element. These are rules that
are not enforced by validating against the XML schema, but are still mandatory for all Common
Data File (CDF) format files.
XML Syntax
This section specifies the XML schema for an LEI data file conforming to
this standard.
XML Design Rules
- The XSD schema conforms to W3C's XML Schema specification, version 1.0.
- The XML namespace is "http://www.gleif.org/data/schema/leidata/2016".
- All interior XML elements are namespace-qualified (element form = qualified).
- All XML attributes are in the null namespace (attribute form = unqualified), with the
exception of
xml:lang.
- Element names are upper camel case.
- Attribute name are lower camel case.
- XSD type names are upper camel case.
- Enumeration code list values are all caps with underscores.
- Elements are used in preference to attributes except for language and type
qualifiers.
- For a data element specified as having unbounded cardinality, the XML includes a single
container element whose subelements are one or more instances of the data element whose
cardinality is unbounded. The name of the container element is formed as the plural of the
name of the contained elements.
XML Schema
An XML file conforming to this standard SHALL be valid according to the
following XSD 1.0 schema.

V1.0 at https://www.gleif.org/content/2-about-lei/5-common-data-file-format/lou-20140620.pdf
Change Management
Changes to this standard that affect the data schema SHALL be
made by approval and publication of a new version of this document. A new version SHALL be one
of the following:
Errata Version An errata version makes corrections to the normative content of the
standard (excluding corrections which would change the data schema) and/or makes changes to
non-normative content such as explanatory material. An errata version does not change the XML
schema definitions, only the documentation parts, and so does not affect the interoperability
of systems implementing the standard. An errata version is indicated by incrementing the third
version number; e.g., 1.0 to 1.0.1, or 1.0.1 to 1.0.2.
Minor Version
A minor version may include all changes permitted in an errata version,
and in addition adds one or more data elements and/or adds one or more codes to a code list
(“enum†data type). A minor version changes the XML schema. Minor version changes to schema
MUST provide for forward and backward compatibility. This allows existing implementations to
continue to interoperate even if they are using different minor versions. A minor version is
indicated by incrementing the second version number; e.g., 1.0 to 1.1 or 1.1.3 to 1.2.
Major Version
A major version may make any change at all, including incompatible
changes to the XML schema. Major version changes to schema require that the new version uses a
different XML namespace. This requires existing implementations to separately understand both
the old and new versions during a period of transition. A major version is indicated by
incrementing the first version number; e.g., 1.1 to 2.0.
The release of a new minor
or major version shall always be accompanied by a transition plan for LOUs and GLEIF, to
ensure a smooth and time-bounded migration to the new version.
Minor Version Changes to the XML Schema
A minor version may introduce new XML
elements and/or adds one or more codes to a code list (“enum†data type). Minor version
changes to schema SHALL be made as specified below, in order to achieve forward and backward
compatibility.
Forward compatibility means that an LEI Data File which is valid
according to the older version’s schema is also valid according to the newer version’s
schema.
Backward compatibility means that an LEI Data File which is valid according
to the newer version’s schema is also valid according to the older version’s schema.
New data elements may be added at pre-defined extension points within the schema, each with an
optional XML element NextVersion. New data elements are always added within a NextVersion
element. When a minor version adds a new data element to a NextVersion element, a
new NextVersion element is also added inside the previously added
NextVersion element, to accommodate additional data elements in subsequent
minor versions. Each successive NextVersion element set is contained directly within the
previous minor version's NextVersion set.
As can be seen from the full XML schema
presented here, the following rules SHALL be observed to ensure forward and backward
compatibility:
- The initial XSD declaration for a
NextVersion element SHALL use the element
name "NextVersion", XML data type "lei:NextVersion1Type" and cardinality optional, unique
{0,1}. The XML data type allows a sequence of any elements, each of cardinality optional,
repeatable (unbounded) and with lax content processing, but in the target namespace.
- The minOccurs declaration on the
NextVersion element allows it to be
omitted in files conforming to the first minor version. The schema wildcard xsd:any allows
for forward compatibility: a file conforming to a new minor version still validates in the
old version because the wildcard matches any new elements introduced in the new minor
version.
- New elements SHALL be introduced in a subsequent minor version by modifying the
declaration for the above type declaration as follows:
- A sequence of the new elements introduced in the previous version.
- A subsequent
NextVersionN element where N is an index
number starting at 1 and incremented by 1 with each minor version.
- Each new element SHALL be declared minOccurs=â€0â€, to ensure backward compatibility: a
file conforming to the old version still validates in the new version because the new
schema does not require the presence of elements not defined in the old version. If a
new element is mandatory for conformance to the new version, this MUST be enforced
outside schema validation.
- The new definition of the
NextVersion element SHALL include a declaration
of an inner NextVersion element, as illustrated above, to provide for
additional elements in subsequent minor versions. The nesting of
NextVersion elements is required to satisfy the “unique particle
attribution†constraint of XSD 1.0.
- Each code list (Enum types) is implemented in the XML schema simply as the XSD string
data type. This provides for forward compatibility because the schema for an older minor
version will validate any string, including codes defined in newer minor versions. The
schema for each minor version includes the list of valid codes for that minor version as
a documentation annotation to the type declaration for each Enum type.
Major Version Changes to the XML Schema
A major version may make any change to the
XML schema whatsoever, including incompatible changes.
A schema introduced in a new
major version SHALL use an XML namespace URI that is different from the XML namespace URI
defined in any other major version of this standard. The namespace URI for a new major version
SHOULD be the same as the namespace URI specified in this standard, with the year at the end
changed to the year in which the new major version is introduced. If more than one major
version is introduced in the same year, a letter “aâ€, “bâ€, “câ€, etc., may be appended to the
year as needed.
A new major version MUST be accompanied by an implementation plan
which explains how implementations will make the transition from the old major version to the
new major version. Generally speaking, such a plan typically provides for a period of
transition in which an implementation capable of receiving the new major version is required
to also receive the old major version.
Abstract Data Content
This section specifies the abstract data content of a data file
conforming to this standard. A data file conforming to this standard SHALL consist of:
- An LEIHeader.
- Zero or more LEI Data Records.
LEI File Header
The LEI File Header describes the context for the LEI Data Records
contained in the main body of the file. The header exists to answer such questions as where
the data came from, when it was collected into this file, etc. The content of the header SHALL
NOT be required to interpret the data content of any LEI Data Record; each LEI Data Record is
self contained. LEI Data Record
An LEI Data Record describes a single LEI
registration. Each LEI Data record in a file conforming to this standard SHALL include data
elements as described below: LEI
The ISO 17442-compliant LEI of the legal entity
described by this LEI Data Record. The LEI is assigned by the LOU.
A value of type
LEIType in a file conforming to this standard SHALL be a 20-character Legal
Entity Identifier conforming to ISO 17422. Conformance to ISO17442 includes having correct
check digits. Entity
Attributes describing the legal entity itself. The
Entity data is supplied by the legal entity, and recorded and published by the
LOU. Registration
Attributes describing the registration of this LEI with an LOU. The
Registration data is maintained by the LOU. Extension
The optional
Extension section of an LEI record may be used to include additional data not
defined in this standard. This may include data specific to an LOU, data specific to a
publisher of LEI data, and so on.
For example, an LOU may use Extension to
publish additional data elements it collects as part of registration.
The following rules
MUST be observed:
- Each XML element included in the content of the
Extension element SHALL be
in an XML namespace that is not null and not equal to the XML namespace of the LEI Data
File as specified in this standard.
- The XML namespace for an
Extension element SHALL be a namespace which the
creator of the extension element exclusively or jointly controls, or from which the
creator re-uses existing elements and their definitions, e.g. a namespace derived from the
Internet Domain Name of the creator, a namespace agreed upon by a group of trading
partners, etc.
- An
Extension element SHALL NOT be defined in such a way as to require the
recipient of the file to recognize the Extension element in order to
interpret the data elements specified in this standard. A recipient of the file MUST be
able to ignore all Extension elements and still interpret the standard
content correctly.
- A recipient of a data file conforming to this standard SHALL NOT reject a file solely
because it contains extensions not understood by the recipient. A recipient MUST be
prepared to accept a file containing extensions and ignore any it does not understand,
provided that the file complies to this standard.

The validation of the reference data provided by the registrant has not
yet occurred.
Based on the validation procedures in use by the LOU responsible for the
record, the information associated with this record has significant reliance on the
information that a submitter provided due to the unavailability of corroborating
information.
Based on the validation procedures in use by the LOU responsible for the
record, the information supplied by the registrant can be partially corroborated by
public authoritative sources, while some of the record is dependent upon the information
that the registrant submitted, either due to conflicts with authoritative information,
or due to data unavailability.
Based on the validation procedures in use by the LOU responsible for the
record, there is sufficient information contained in authoritative public sources to
corroborate the information that the submitter has provided for the
record.

- Elements of base data type
xs:dateTime further restrict the ISO 8601
range of date and time format to the single format:
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssTZ
where the components of the above string are as follows:
- YYYY is the year
- MM is the month (01 = January, …, 12 = December)
- DD is the day of the month (01 = first day of the month)
- T is the single character ‘T’
- hh is the hour (00 – 23)
- mm is the minute
- ss.sss is the second and milliseconds. Two digits must be used for the seconds.
From one to three digits may be used for milliseconds, or omitted entirely along
with the decimal point.
- TZ is the time zone specifier, which can be one of:
- Z the single character ‘Z’, denoting Coordinated Universal Time (UTC); or
- +hh:mm denoting a positive offset from UTC; or
- -hh:mm denoting a negative offset from UTC
This pattern therefore adds the restrictions, beyond the ISO 8601 specification:
- Only the specified pattern of digits, indicators and separators may be used (no
spaces or other white space characters).
- The time zone (TZ) MUST be present, although it may be zero (Z)
if all dates and times are expressed as UTC+00:00.
- Only 3 decimal places maximum are allowed in the seconds section (ss.sss).
