Question

The unique identifier (set out in Article 11 of the RTS on disclosure) includes the LEI of the reporting entity. Should the unique identifier be adjusted if the reporting entity changes during the lifetime of the securitisation?

Answer

[ESMA 33-128-563 Securitisation Q&A, Q&A 5.2.2] If the reporting entity changes during the lifetime of the securitisation, the unique identifier should not change. In other words, once the unique identifier has been set for the securitisation by the reporting entity responsible for creating the first data submission according to the RTS on disclosure technical standards, then that unique identifier should not change. This enables a consistent time series of information to be built over time for that securitisation, which is essential for data users.
