How to Get an ISIN for
a Private Company
This presentation provides a comprehensive guide for
private companies seeking to obtain an ISIN
(International Securities Identification Number). We will
cover the process, benefits, and key considerations
involved in ISIN issuance.
What is an ISIN?
An ISIN is a unique 12-
character alphanumeric code
that identifies a specific
security, such as shares or
bonds. It is essential for
streamlining trading, clearing,
and settlement
processes in global financial
markets.
Benefits of ISIN for
Private Companies
Obtaining an ISIN allows private
companies to enhance
transparency, attract investors,
and facilitate cross-border
transactions. It signals a
commitment to financial discipline
and corporate governance.

Eligibility Criteria
Companies must meet specific eligibility criteria, such
as being registered with a recognized financial
authority and having a clear corporate structure.
Application Submission
Submit a comprehensive application to the
relevant National Numbering Agency (NNA) or its
authorized representative.
Verification and Approval
The NNA reviews the application, conducts due diligence,
and approves the ISIN if all requirements are met.
ISIN Allocation and Communication
Once approved, the NNA assigns the ISIN to the
company and notifies them of the allocation.
Consider Dematerialization
Dematerialization, or the conversion of physical securities to
electronic form, is often required for ISIN issuance and facilitates
efficient trading.
Prepare
Comprehensive
Documentation
Gather all necessary
documentation, including
incorporation certificates,
shareholder agreements,
and financial statements.
Key Considerations for Private
Companies

Choose the
Right NNA
Select the appropriate
NNA based on the
company's jurisdiction,
type of security,
and target markets.
Leveraging ISIN for Growth and Investment
Enhanced Investor
Access
An ISIN makes a company's shares
more accessible to a wider range of
investors, both domestic and
international, potentially increasing
liquidity and valuation.
Facilitating Private
Placements
ISINs streamline the process of
issuing shares through private
placements, enabling efficient
capital raising from private equity
firms and other investors.
Opening New
Opportunities
Having an ISIN can open doors to
alternative financing options, such
as corporate bonds and other debt
securities, providing a broader
spectrum of capital raising
possibilities.
Conclusion: A Gateway
to Growth
Obtaining an ISIN is a strategic step for private companies seeking to
enhance their financial profile, expand their investor base, and unlock new
growth opportunities. It signals a commitment to corporate governance
and opens doors to a wider range of financial instruments. By navigating
the ISIN issuance process effectively, private companies can position
themselves for future success.
