Office of Financial Research; Statement on Legal Entity Identification for Financial Contracts
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the ``DFA''), Public Law 111-203, establishes the Office of Financial Research (the ``Office'') and provides it with the authority to collect data to support the Financial Stability Oversight Council (the ``Council'') and to set standards for reporting such data. To support the Council in identifying connections among market participants and monitoring systemic risk, the Office intends to standardize how parties to financial contracts are identified in the data it collects on behalf of the Council. The Office is issuing a statement of policy regarding its preference to adopt through rulemaking a universal standard for identifying parties to financial contracts that is established and implemented by private industry and other relevant stakeholders through a consensus process. The statement of policy provides guidance on how the Office will evaluate whether a standard is adequate for adoption, including its attributes and method of implementation. The Office seeks comment on this statement of policy, including but not limited to the desired characteristics for a Legal Entity Identifier (``LEI'') and the institutional arrangements for issuing and maintaining identifiers and associated reference data.
