At @Sibos, @federalreserve Governor Christopher Waller emphasized that agentic payments will need proof “that an agent has the authority to pay on the buyer’s behalf.”
GLEIF’s recent working paper looks at how the verifiable #LEI (#vLEI) could provide that proof for organizations. #AgenticAI

On #WorldStandardsDay, GLEIF joins @isostandards, @IECStandards, and @ITU in celebrating the standards that make global interoperability possible.
For GLEIF, the ISO 17442 family is central to our mission to enable trust and transparency through open, global organizational identity.
Part 1️⃣ defines the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) and the framework for uniquely identifying legal entities.
Part 2️⃣ enables the LEI to be embedded in digital certificates.
Part 3️⃣ defines how the LEI can be used in verifiable LEI (vLEI) credentials, extending organizational identity into a digitally verifiable form.
Together, they provide a standards-based path from identifying organizations to verifying organizational identity in the digital world.

Building adoption through standards 📈
At the Swift Hackathon 2026, @StanChart, winner of the Business Challenge, demonstrated how global standards and protocols promote interoperability and drive wider adoption of digital assets.
Instead of reinventing the wheel, its solution leveraged ISO 20022 and the verifiable #LEI (#vLEI) to help create scalable solutions without forcing market participants to abandon established processes.

Promoting global interoperability 🇪🇺🌐
As negotiations on the European Business Wallet (#EBW) move forward, both the European Parliament and Council mandates include the possibility of using the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) to link and verify key entity attributes.
For businesses operating across and beyond Europe, the #LEI can help connect the EBW with non-EU identity frameworks and support interoperable, cross-border interactions.
GLEIF will continue working closely with @Europarl_EN, @EUCouncil and @EU_Commission to help ensure the EBW delivers practical benefits for companies operating across and beyond Europe.

An AI tracker counted more than 181,000 unstructured comment letters on the SEC’s semiannual reporting proposal. Campbell Pryde of @XBRLUS proposes XBRL templates instead, tagging each response and tying it to an entity identifier such as the #LEI. #XBRL

The #LEI appears twice in AMLA’s final draft due diligence standards: in the minimum details firms collect on low-risk business customers, and in the attributes #EU Digital Identity Wallets and other eID means should carry. Both times “where available.” #AML
