From a user perspective, it would be very helpful to have access to a consolidated, continuously updated master record of ICT providers, from which identification data could be retrieved automatically when a new provider is added. As an initial scope, I would suggest starting with the critical ICT third-party service providers (CTPPs) designated by the ESAs.

For example, for the Microsoft group it would be useful to find the legal name, registered office address, LEI code and US Employer Identification Number (EIN) already pre-loaded.

In addition to reducing data-entry time, this feature would improve the quality and consistency of the data feeding into the register of information.
