ThomsonPermIdExchangeTickerDUNSBusiness Rules
CUSIP identifiers should not be considered valid universal identifiers as they only apply to U.S. and Canadian securities
When using PublisherDefined values, publishers should provide at least one value from the existing enumeration list whenever possible
DUNS identifier type should be used when identifying private companies in coverage updates
Design Decisions
A new special idType value 'L1' was introduced for Level One publisher identification
To help implementors identify the publisher with greater certainty by imposing restrictions on otherwise flexible facilities
RIXML Level One Addendum v2.5, p.26
Added DUNS enumeration value to IssuerSecurityIDTypeEnum for identifying private companies
The Interactions work stream required the ability to identify private companies, and DUNS numbers are commonly used identifiers for this purpose, providing unique nine-digit identifiers for businesses including credit file establishment
