STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, March 8, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- NordLEI, a leading figure in issuing Legal Entity Identifiers (LEIs) across Northern Europe, proudly announces the launch of its vLEI-targeted platform: Nord vLEI. Nord vLEI is a GLEIF QVI candidate, and the vLEI marks a significant advancement in the digital identification of legal entities engaged in financial transactions. NordLEI positions itself at the forefront of the digital transformation of the LEI industry with the introduction of Nord vLEI. When the vLEI system goes live later this year it will offer a verifiable, secure, and efficient solution for legal entities worldwide to verify the identities of both entities and natural persons representing entities in official roles.
The Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a well-known tool for identifying legal entities involved in financial transactions. The introduction of the verifiable LEI (vLEI) by GLEIF is set to revolutionize this space by offering a digital and cryptographic advancement over the traditional LEI. The vLEI system will allow for decentralized and automated validation of organizational identities, enabling entities to securely authenticate their identity across a range of activities, from financial dealings to official communications and reports. This move towards a more digitized, secure, and transparent system underscores the evolving needs of the modern digital ecosystem.

Once the vLEI system becomes operational, Nord vLEI will facilitate the management and issuance of Official Organizational Role Credentials and Engagement Context Role Credentials, alongside managing organizations' vLEIs. This initiative underscores NordLEI's commitment to enhancing transparency and trust within the global financial ecosystem through rigorous digital identity verification processes.
