Legal Entity Identifier webcast: Plans For 2013

During a webcast about the legal entity identifier on November 27, industry participants provided insights into the Financial Stability Board's work on the identifier, discussed firms' implementation plans and considered the lessons that can be learned from the introduction of existing identifiers

The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has drawn up concrete plans for the creation of the legal entity identifier system, which is set to become one of the biggest data management stories next year when it is set up. Many firms have begun to change their systems accordingly and register for interim LEIs, but questions remain about the implications of the FSB's plans.

During this webinar, panellists discuss:

- the extent to which the LEI will help to manage risk

- the current status of the LEI project globally

- implementation challenges faced by industry participants

- key dates and developments to prepare for in 2013

 The speakers are:

- Sue Baldwin, head of vendor management, JP Morgan Chase
- Olivier Rose, head of projects and international data management, Societe Generale Securities Services
- Mark Davies, vice president, LEI business development, DTCC
- Darren Purcell, director, CUSIP Global Services
- Scott Preiss, Vice President, CUSIP Global Services
