The GMEI® Utility is DTCC's legal entity identifier (LEI) solution. Register your entity for an LEI (GMEI Utility), communicate your LEI with your counterparties and enrich this information on to your authoritative trade records, making it available as part of the enriched SSIs which can then be used downstream in the settlement process. To learn more about the use of LEIs through the ITP products and services, visit Legal Entity Identifier.
Click on the GMEI® feature you require to learn more.
The GMEI® utility is required to verify that users requesting registrations and renewals have the proper authority from the legal entity they represent. If DTCC cannot verify the authority of the individual who placed the order via the public domain, for example via business registries, we cannot process a Registration or Renewal.
Please download the GMEI Utility LEI Authorization Form from Resources and submit this, along with any supporting documentation, at the same time you place your order.

Register new LEIs for use in regulatory reporting. These LEI records will appear on the GMEI utility (www.GMEIutility.org) after LEI assignment.
