Non-consolidating, whenever the accounting consolidation definition for parent relationship does not apply. This category includes cases where the entity is controlled by a natural person(s) without any intermediate legal entity (“Natural Person(s)”); the entity is controlled by legal entities not subject to consolidation (“Non-Consolidating”); and where there is no known person(s) controlling the entity (“No Known Person” e.g.; the entity is controlled by diverse shareholders).
Non-Public, whenever the relationship information is non-public and therefore creates obstacles to releasing this information. This category includes cases where there are obstacles in the laws or regulations of a jurisdiction restricting the reporting (“Binding Legal Constraint”); the existence of other legal constraints such as articles governing the legal entity or a contract (“Legal Obstacles”); where disclosure of the information would be detrimental to the legal entity or the relevant parent (“Disclosure Detrimental” and “Detriment Not Excluded”); and where the consent to disclose the parent LEI was not obtained (“Consent Not Obtained”). An entity is not required to provide non-public relationship information in order to register or renew an LEI.
No LEI, when the parent does not consent to obtain an LEI or to authorize its “child entity” to obtain an LEI on its behalf.
