Updates on the Cross Reference Symbology for Issuer Data

Open Corporates is expected to attend the meeting next week.

There was discussion around different IDs that could be used. Some points made include:

• With LEI the company has to initiate getting the ID so there is no way for the group to enforce this.
• Concern that PermID is not really open and is dependent on company confirmation
• Bloomberg is open at security but closed at company level
