Discussion notes, key understandings, outstanding questions, observations, and, if appropriate to this discussion: action items, next steps:


Background on what is a DID

Background on LEI

Universal verifier can also check DID-LEI -> this did-lei combo is unique


Use case - wallet looks up legal entity that is beind the did

Slide DID-LEI Verification service - (show slide) POC process - 5 step process

At the core a DID-LEI Verification Service

Last step of the process is to Register the DID in the LEI record


What is the reality of using the VLEI to link the the DID - LEI ?

vLEI is a ‘heavy’ authengication -


Questions:

This solution is driven by the financial sector.


A lot of similiaraity to the ‘well known’ DID directory


Question is this demo leading to the solution being a library used in corporate ‘wallet’?


Discussion point - Is the additional step of using GLEIF really worth it?
