ISIN Code
An ISIN code, or international securities identification number, is a 12 digit code consisting of numbers and letters that distinctly identify securities. Stocks and bonds are just two of the most common securities that are often covered by an ISIN Code.
Obtain an ISIN Code
To obtain an ISIN a company or fund must qualify. Without getting into the many rules of an ISIN code, a company must have the proper documentation in order to obtain the ISIN. For instance, if a public company is seeking capital and needs an ISIN code, a public prospectus document is needed. On the other hand, if the company is private and seeking capital, in most cases they will need to have a private offering memorandum written in order to obtain the ISIN code.
