| 010 | Code The code is a row identifier, and must be unique for each row in the table.
The code shall correspond to the code of the group whenever a group of connected clients exists. In any other case, the code shall correspond to the individual counterparty.
The composition of the code depends on the national reporting system, unless a uniform codification is available in the Union.
For a group of connected clients, the code that shall be reported shall be the code of the parent company. Where the group of connected clients does not have a parent, the code that shall be reported shall be the code of the individual entity which is considered by the institution as the most significant within the group of connected clients. This code shall be used in a consistent way across time.

| 020 | Name The name shall correspond to the name of the group whenever a group of connected clients exists. In any other case, the name shall correspond to the individual counterparty.
For a group of connected clients, the name that shall be reported shall be the name of the parent company or, when the group of connected clients does not have a parent, it shall be the group’s commercial name.
|
| 030 | LEI Code The legal entity identifier code of the counterparty.
For a group of connected clients, the legal identifier code that shall be reported shall be the code of the parent company.

NACE codes shall be used for ‘ Non-financial corporations ’ with one level detail (e.g. ‘ F – Construction ’ ) and for ‘ Other financial corporations ’ with a two level detail, which provides separate information on insurance activities (e.g. ‘ K65 — Insurance, reinsurance and pension funding, except compulsory social security ’ ).
The ‘ Other financial corporations ’ and ‘ Non-financial corporations ’ economic sectors shall be classified on the basis of FINREP counterparty breakdown.
For groups of connected clients, no NACE code shall be reported.
