Financial identifiers are official registration codes such as ISIN and CUSIP that uniquely identify securities and issuers across global markets.
To issue or list a bond successfully, you must get ISIN and CUSIP identifiers. These codes confirm that your instrument exists, belongs to the correct issuer, and meets clearing requirements. Therefore, they are fundamental to investor recognition and regulatory compliance.
At The Bond Service, we manage the full identifier process from start to finish. In addition, we liaise with CUSIP (Agencies) and ANNA (Association of National Numbering Agencies) to secure accurate identifiers quickly. As a result, your bond appears correctly on Bloomberg (Platform), Refinitiv (Directory), and clearing systems such as DTC (Clearinghouse), Euroclear (Clearing System), and Clearstream (Custodian).
Financial identifiers ensure consistent data across every listing platform. Consequently, they are required for institutional visibility and trade settlement.
They provide:
In short, without valid identifiers your bond cannot appear in data feeds or settlement systems.
National numbering agencies assign a 12-character ISIN to identify your bond globally.
This code is required for listings, custodial holdings, and most cross-border transactions.
An ISIN links your security to its jurisdiction whilst most importantly confirming its eligibility for global distribution.
Used by: Bloomberg, Refinitiv, Euroclear, Clearstream, and LSE.
The CUSIP is a 9-digit code used mainly in the US and Canada.
This identifier representes the same bond as the ISIN but in a North American context, where US agencies and corporations, namely DTC settlemenst and SEC regulations, apply.
Every US-based issuance must include a CUSIP for trade recognition and settlement.
Used by: DTC, FINRA, and US broker-dealers.
The LEI identifies the issuer rather than the instrument.
This identifier is a 20-character code issued under the GLEIF system and connects the bond issuer to their corporate identity. For example Companies, Partnerships, Trusts and foundations, Funds and special purpose vehicles (SPVs), and also Government bodies. These Identifiers allow regulators and custodians to verify ownership and compliance.
Used by: Regulators, central banks, custodians, and all major market data platforms.
