The contact for our LEI has left the company. What do I do?

Please register for a new Euronext Direct account. Once registered please contact the LEI team via email at leiqueries@euronext.com to request for the LEI(s) to be transferred from the old account into the new account. Please provide details in your email of the relevant LEI(s) and the owner details of the previous Euronext Direct account.

What does my LEI registration status mean?

LEI Status	Description
Pending Validation:	An application for an LEI that has been submitted and which is being processed and validated.
Issued:	An LEI registration that has been validated and issued, and which identifies an entity that was an operating legal entity as of the last update.
Duplicate:	An LEI Registration that has been determined to be a duplicate registration of the same legal entity as another LEI Registration; the 'Duplicate’ status is assigned to the non-surviving registration (i.e. the LEI that should no longer be used). Only one of the potential multiple identifiers will survive.
Retired:	An LEI registration for an entity that has ceased operation, without having been merged into another entity.
Annulled:	An LEI registration that was marked as erroneous or invalid after it was issued.
Transferred:	An LEI registration transferred to a different Local Operating Unit (LOU) as the managing LOU. A record in this state is not published, but may be used internally by the prior LOU for audit-trail purposes.
Pending Transfer:	An LEI registration requested to be transferred to another LOU. The request is being processed at the sending LOU. When the receiving LOU is ready, the status will be changed to 'Pending Archival’ by the sending LOU before the transfer's completion.
Pending Archival:	An LEI registration is about to be transferred to a different LOU, after which its registration status will revert to a non-pending status. The 'Pending Archival’ status serves to inform recipients of LOU-provided data files that an LEI record will be removed from that LOU’s published file after the transfer is complete.

I registered on Euronext Direct but have not received an account activation email. What should I do?

An account activation email will be immediately sent to the email address which you registered. In some cases, your email account may be configured to block certain emails or mark them as spam.

If the activation email is in your spam folder, please mark it as safe to ensure that any further emails from Euronext Direct are received in your inbox.

For more information on your email configuration, you may need to contact your IT service provider or IT department.

Step 2: Identify LEI Owner. What is required here?

As of May 2017, Euronext Dublin is required to collect information on the LEI entity’s direct and ultimate parents in order to answer the question of “who owns whom”. The current definitions of the direct and ultimate parent are the accounting consolidating parents of the LEI entity:

Direct parent: The lowest level legal entity that prepares consolidated financial statements that consolidate the LEI child entity.
Ultimate parent: The highest level legal entity preparing consolidated financial statements that consolidate the LEI child entity.

This information is collected so that eventually a unique and free data source will be available that connects the corporate dots globally through open, standardised and high-quality LEI data.

For more detailed information on the definition of parent relationship being used, please visit the Regulatory Oversight Committee (ROC) and the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF).

What are the requirements?

If you can provide this information, it will be collected as part of your New, Renewal, Update or Port Euronext Direct application. You will be asked to “Identify the LEI Owner”.

The required information is similar to that provided for the child LEI entity:

Legal name
Company registration number
Legal address
Headquarters address

If you provide parent information, you will also be asked to attach documentation to confirm the 'Accounting Consolidating’ relationship.

What if I cannot provide this information?

If you cannot provide the parent information (for example, if the entity has no parent or if there are legal obstacles to providing the information), you may opt out of one or both parent relationships by selecting one of the following:

Opt-out reason	Description
No LEI:	The parent does not consent to have an LEI or the relationship is not yet known, or a relationship is not yet defined due to the absence of a parental LEI.
Natural Persons:	There is no parent according to the definition used because the entity is controlled by a natural person or natural persons without any intermediate legal entity meeting the definition of accounting consolidating parent.
Non-Consolidating:	There is no parent according to the definition used because the entity is controlled by legal entities not subject to preparing consolidated financial statements.
No Known Person:	There is no parent according to the definition used, because there is no known person controlling the entity (e.g., diversified shareholding).
Legal Obstacles:	Obstacles in the laws or regulations of a jurisdiction prevent providing or publishing this information.
Consent Not Obtained:	The parent's consent was necessary under the applicable legal framework and the parent did not consent or could not be contacted.
Binding Legal Commitments:	Binding legal commitments (other than the laws or regulations of a jurisdiction), such as articles governing the legal entity or a contract, prevent providing or publishing this information.
Detriment Not Excluded:	The child entity has sought to consult the parent entity about the reporting of the parent information but could not confirm the absence of detriment in a way that can appropriately prevent liability risks for the child entity.
Disclosure Detrimental:	The disclosure of this information would be detrimental to the legal entity or the relevant parent. This will include reasons generally accepted by public authorities in similar circumstances, based on a declaration by the entity.
