volume weighted average price financial
"Volume weighted average price paid | Number of Ordinary Shares"
The volume weighted average price (VWAP) is a way to measure the average price of a security, such as a stock, over a specific period, taking into account how many units were traded at each price. It’s similar to calculating the average cost of items bought when some are more frequently purchased than others. Investors use VWAP to assess whether a security is being bought or sold at a fair price during trading.

LEI financial
"LEI | 635400BR2ROC1FVEBQ56"
A Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a unique 20-character code assigned to a company or organization that participates in financial markets, like a corporate passport number. It helps investors and regulators unambiguously identify counterparties across databases and transactions, reducing confusion much like using a vehicle identification number to track a car’s history; clearer identification improves transparency, risk monitoring, and regulatory reporting.
ISIN financial
"ISIN: | IE00BYTBXV33"
A 12-character International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) is a unique code that acts like a passport for a specific stock, bond or other tradable security so it can be identified worldwide. Investors and systems use it to ensure they are buying, selling and tracking the exact same instrument across exchanges and data feeds, which prevents costly mix-ups and makes portfolio reporting, settlement and regulatory checks simpler and more reliable.
