ISO 20022 adoption continues to evolve. 👉 Find out what the next milestone is: https://lnkd.in/eJhxnfqd

While ISO 20022 is the new standard bringing tangible value across the payment ecosystem, regional differences remain. Some of these were explored at the recent ISO 20022 Client Forum “What Actually Matters” in New York. Beyond sharing how we support clients from readiness to post-go-live optimisation, the conversation centred on the real impact of ISO 20022: richer data, better outcomes, operational efficiency, stronger compliance, practical migration journeys, and enabling innovation. We thank our clients, partners, and Swift representatives for a lively discussion with tangible takeaways. Access our ISO 20022 resources here: https://lnkd.in/eCyNvFfv #ISO20022 #payments #innovation #TransactionBanking George Lee, Ruby Mahmood, Jessica O'Keefe, Yolanda Casais, Sebastian Hindelang, Derrick Y., Sandhya Sundaran

The G20 has set clear goals for cross-border payments, across speed, transparency, cost and access. Our payments scheme is helping deliver on those goals – making transactions faster, more transparent and more predictable. At the same time, our ledger is accelerating the shift to digital finance at global scale. 👉 Learn how we’re expanding what’s possible for cross-border payments: https://lnkd.in/eYTQ8VyS #Innovation #Payments

Why is the last mile the longest? While transactions across the Swift network can happen in seconds, around 80% of a payment’s journey is spent in the “last mile” – the time between a payment reaching the beneficiary bank and being credited to the end account. Domestic regulations, local market practices and infrastructure can all result in delays. Our payments scheme is designed to significantly improve that final stage of the journey – bringing greater speed, certainty and transparency to the part of the process that matters most to end customers. “Everyone should be able to transact internationally at pace, safe in the knowledge that the full value will arrive with the recipient and that fees will be affordable and fixed from the start,” says Nasir Ahmed, Head of Payments Scheme at Swift. 👉 Learn more about how the Swift scheme is improving the last mile, with banks including Garanti BBVA, J.P. Morgan Mobility Payments Solutions S.A. , KASIKORNBANK and KEB Hana Bank (D) AG among its global participants: https://lnkd.in/eUU2NeSn #CrossBorderPayments #SwiftScheme #G20

True progress in payments won’t come from just one solution – it will come from a multitude of systems working seamlessly together. Our payments scheme and blockchain-based ledger reflect this approach: raising the standard of transfers on today’s rails, while scaling the benefits of digital finance for the future. 👉 Learn more about our parallel track innovation strategy: https://lnkd.in/eYTQ8VyS #Innovation #Payments

What does it take to evolve financial markets while maintaining trust at global scale? At the conference ‘Blockchain & Finance’, held at the French Ministry of Economy and Finance during Paris Blockchain Week and organised by Societe Generale - FORGE, leaders from across the ecosystem came together to discuss how blockchain, stablecoins and digital assets are reshaping market infrastructure. During the panel on the evolution of financial markets, Thierry Chilosi, our Chief Business Officer, shared perspectives on balancing innovation with resilience, trust and global scale. The discussion underscored the importance of collaboration across market participants as the industry adapts to new demands. The conversation also reinforced the need for interoperable models that allow emerging asset types to connect with established financial systems efficiently and securely. 👉 Find out how Swift is helping the financial community prepare for what’s next: https://lnkd.in/eYTQ8VyS #Blockchain #DigitalAssets

Improving the state of cross‑border payments is a global ambition shared by the G20. As part of its roadmap to enhance cross‑border payments by 2027, the G20 set clear goals around speed, cost, transparency, choice and access. Real progress is already underway. Today, 75% of transactions over Swift reach the destination bank within 10 minutes, exceeding the G20 target. But there’s more to do. Consistency of experience, financial inclusion and delays beyond the Swift network still need to be addressed. That’s why our payments scheme plays a critical role, helping move the industry closer to cross‑border payments that work better for everyone, everywhere. 👉 Learn how banks including Commonwealth Bank, City Bank, DenizBank and Deutsche Bank – alongside more than 50 others – are bringing this vision to life: https://lnkd.in/eUU2NeSn #CrossBorderPayments #SwiftScheme #G20

Our CEO, Javier Perez-Tasso, took part in a high level policy roundtable co-hosted by the African Union Commission and AfricaNenda Foundation, focused on advancing inclusive instant payment systems across Africa. The discussions brought together policymakers, central banks and industry leaders to translate shared ambitions into concrete action – from regulatory harmonisation to cross border interoperability – in support of Africa’s economic integration agenda. These conversations underscore the importance of continued collaboration across public and private stakeholders. They also link closely to the themes we’ll be exploring at Swift Connect Africa, where the community will come together to discuss practical pathways for modernising payments and strengthening regional connectivity. 👉 Join the conversation at Swift Connect Africa: https://lnkd.in/eufPYWCx #CrossBorderPayments
