Innovative new partnership sees LEIs encapsulated in digital signing applications.<\/em><\/p>\n

South Africa-based customer communications company, PBSA, and UK-based Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) innovator, RapidLEI, today announced a strategic partnership that will see PBSA become a regional Registration Agent (RA) for RapidLEI as well as build LEI support into its signing solutions.<\/p>\n

RapidLEI was launched in 2018 by Ubisecure and has been taking the world by storm through a growing network of global partners, with PBSA representing the next stage in this continued expansion. RapidLEI\u2019s pioneering automatic LEI issuance process sees it reduced from a few days to a few minutes. With regulation mandating the use of LEIs and new use cases now benefitting from the identity assurance LEIs can offer, this G20-endorsed organisation identifier is already achieving mass adoption and shows no sign of slowing down.<\/p>\n

PBSA, as a RapidLEI Registration Agent, will meet client demand for LEIs in South Africa, as well as offering LEIs in other regions they are expanding to, such as Europe and the USA, via their SigniFlow<\/a> brand.<\/p>\n

The RapidLEI solution makes LEIs available through a SaaS service or API. The API allows third party developers to build same-session LEI issuance into their applications, which will be used to its full extent by PBSA in the first stage of this collaboration. While strong identities like BankID & eID are beginning to be used to digitally sign documents, this new partnership adds organisational identity to the digital seal in the form of an LEI. Encapsulating the LEI in the company seal gives the other party the opportunity to check identities against a live global company database \u2013 verifying which company signed this document, and also their parent company\/group structure.<\/p>\n

After this initial phase of the partnership, PBSA and Ubisecure plan to collaborate further on additional pioneering identity assurance solutions. Ubisecure will be launching new services in the coming weeks, where LEIs are central to new organisation Identity Provider (IdP) solutions for advanced KYC (Know your Customer) and RtX (Right to Represent). These cutting-edge services will help enterprises to reduce fraud, lower compliance costs and create new products using verified organisation identities.<\/p>\n

Leon Van Der Merwe, Director at PBSA, says \u201cWe\u2019re very excited to bring Ubisecure\u2019s pioneering approach to digital identity to the South African market and beyond, and have our global customers benefit from strong organisation identities offered by our signing solutions. Our long-held ideals of collaboration, integrity and accountability go hand in hand with what the LEI stands for \u2013 trust in who you\u2019re doing business with.\u201d<\/p>\n

Paul Tourret, Corporate Development Officer at RapidLEI, says \u201cWe are incredibly honoured to be collaborating with the largest South African signing\/workflow provider to connect the LEI ecosystem to the signing ecosystem, and we see a lot of potential to further enhance online trust with LEIs and the Ubisecure IdP services as we connect the various ecosystems together. We see this collaboration being the start of a dramatic shift in how LEIs are used in modern digital transactions.\u201d<\/p>\n
