The Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) has released an ebook, The vLEI: Introducing Digital I.D. for Legal Entities Everywhere. The ebook promotes use of the verifiable LEI (vLEI), which supports digitised organisational identity to meet global interest in automated authentication and verification of legal entities across industries including financial services.

The ebook presents an overview of the vLEI trust ecosystem, explains how the vLEI works, and explores the trust chain that safeguards the integrity of the system. It also describes how the Key Event Receipt Infrastructure (KERI) protocol, which supports a decentralised identify system, enables vLEI interoperability with all technology models.
