# Options to Improve Adoption of the LEI, in Particular for Use in Cross-border Payments

A Financial Stability Board report to the G20 on options to widen adoption of the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI), in particular for cross-border payments, drawing on a survey of member authorities, an outreach event and a GLEIF (Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation) survey. It mentions the verifiable LEI (vLEI), a digitally verifiable credential containing the LEI, as one of GLEIF's efforts that could encourage voluntary LEI adoption. For readers following the policy context of the vLEI.
