The Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) has named Karla McKenna, director of market practice and standards at Citi, as its head of standards.

McKenna has worked extensively on the development and implementation of GLEIF standards and the legal entity identifier (LEI) itself. In the fall, the ISO Technical Committee for Financial Services (ISO/TC 68), which she chairs, proposed a standard for entity legal forms to complement the ISO 17442 standard for LEI filing.

GLEIF has been active over the past year, naming Stephan Wolf as its CEO about a year ago, setting fees for LEI licensing, launching a website and most recently, making a free LEI data download available.

"Leveraging my experience developing ISO standards, I look forward to supporting the GLEIF in the implementation of standards to optimize business, analytical and supervisory processes," says McKenna.
