We establish a collaborative environment that transcends organizational boundaries
We drive the adoption of globally recognized identifiers, like the LEI, to improve data interoperability
We advance innovation by encouraging joint efforts in use case development, technology creation, and data integration
The Global Open Data Integration Network (GODIN) is a collaborative effort to enhance global data interoperability and accessibility by connecting organizations that publish open data or create open data standards and aligning data to a global framework like the Global Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) System.
The founding organizations are the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) - a not-for-profit Swiss foundation, established by the Financial Stability Board ensuring the operational stability of the Global LEI System, and Open Ownership - a not-profit organization focused on beneficial ownership transparency.
GLEIF and Open Ownership have jointly founded GODIN and invite other organizations to participate as a member. By embedding the LEI into open data sources, GODIN seeks to create a robust ecosystem that fosters transparency, efficiency, and collaboration.
Revolutionize the existing industry perception of Open Data by implementing a practical approach to utilize Open Data, enabling enhanced transparency and risk assessment. We aim to empower businesses with the tools they need to harness the potential of Open Data, driving innovation and fostering a more informed and accountable marketplace.
In 2023 GLEIF, Open Ownership and OpenSanctions joined forces into a collaborative compound leveraging their unique strengths: GLEIF’s expertise in legal entity identification and international standards, Open Ownership’s focus on beneficial ownership information for greater transparency, and OpenSanctions’ comprehensive database of global watch lists.
