Australia
The use of LEIs in Australia has increased significantly in recent years, supported by regulatory developments aimed at making financial markets safer, more transparent and easier to supervise. Statistics show that tens of thousands of Australian companies, funds, trusts and other legal entities are already registered in the Global LEI System.
One of the main drivers of LEI adoption in Australia is the ASIC Derivative Transaction Rules (Reporting) 2024. The current reporting framework places greater emphasis on standardised identifiers, including the LEI, to improve the consistency and quality of transaction data.
