Field 4.03 | Matching Date: n/a | Tolerance: n/a

Description:
Unique code identifying the entity which submits the report. In the case where the submission of the report has been delegated to a third party or to the other counterparty, the unique code identifying that entity.

Best Practice:
For action types "NEWT", "CORR" and "REUU": This field shall contain a valid LEI recognised by GLEIF. The LEI shall pertain to a legal entity and not a branch. The status of the LEI for message template "EROR" is irrespective, but for all other message templates it can be either:

• Issued

• Pending Transfer

• Pending Archival

This field represents the entity who submitted the report and does not necessarily pertain to any counterparty to the transaction, although it can be equal to Field 4.04 (Reporting Counterparty) if reporting is not delegated.

This entity could therefore be:

• a third-party service-provider to whom the Reporting Counterparty or Entity Responsible for the Report has outsourced the operation of reporting (Agent Lender or other), else;

• equal to Field 4.04 (Reporting Counterparty) where there is no delegation and is not a UCITS management company or AIFM reporting on behalf of a UCITS or AIF. (SFTR-122)
