GLEIF CEO Stephan Wolf participated in the Financial Street Forum's annual conference, held from the 21st until the 23rd of November 2022, in Beijing, China.

In his pre-recorded keynote speech, Stephan delves into the development status of the Global LEI System across the major APAC jurisdictions. He highlights an exponential LEI growth in China, with more than 100,000 local legal entities enjoying all the benefits and advantages this unique code brings.

During his presentation, Stephan also touches upon the two main development trends for the upcoming months, the cryptographically verifiable LEI (vLEI) and the extension of GLEIF's operations across the main APAC markets to better support local governments and policymakers.
