A Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a 20-character code that identifies a legal entity in financial transactions and reporting. Bloomberg’s LEI page turns the underlying record into a readable identity check: legal name, address, jurisdiction, registration authority, entity status and validation history.

The purpose is practical due diligence. Do not rely on a logo or a familiar trading name. Open the record, match its identifiers to the firm’s documents, and understand exactly what the record proves—and what it does not.

What the Bloomberg LEI record confirms

The Bloomberg record names the entity as Corby SA and gives LEI 8945007DR27VYYGIA768. It reports both the legal address and headquarters address as Bahnhofstrasse 28a, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland, with region code CH-ZH and legal jurisdiction country Switzerland.

The entity is shown as an active Swiss company limited by shares. The registration authority is the Ministry of Justice (RA000549), with authority entity ID CHE105594174—the unpunctuated form of Swiss UID CHE-105.594.174. The recorded entity creation date is 12 July 2000.

Registration and validation history

The record shows an initial LEI registration on 24 September 2018, a last update on 3 September 2025 and a next renewal date of 22 October 2026. Its registration status is ISSUED and its validation sources are marked FULLY_CORROBORATED.

The managing Local Operating Unit is identified by LEI 529900F6BNUR3RJ2WH29. The validation authority is again the Ministry of Justice, using the same authority entity ID. These fields show how the identity record was maintained and checked; the dates matter because LEI data must remain current.

What the record does not prove

An LEI is an identity record, not a financial-services licence, product approval, credit rating or guarantee of investment performance. An ISSUED status means the identifier is active; it does not by itself establish that a firm is authorised to provide a particular regulated service.

The Bloomberg page says direct- and ultimate-parent information was not provided, using the reason NO_KNOWN_PERSON. Read that field narrowly: it is a statement about the parent data in the LEI record, not a conclusion about ownership, independence or corporate quality.

How to use the record in due diligence

Open the Bloomberg LEI record and compare five fields with the proposal, mandate and invoice in front of you: legal name, LEI, Swiss UID, address and entity status. A mismatch may be innocent, but it should be resolved in writing before money or personal documents move.

Then check the last-update and next-renewal dates, and cross-check the legal entity in the Swiss commercial register. Keep a dated copy or screenshot of the record. For any claim about regulatory authorisation, use the relevant regulator’s register separately; the LEI cannot answer that question.
