Hmmm... I wondered whether it was worth blogging about anything other than MiFID this week... but then decided that perhaps someone might want to read about something else..? Anyway, I finished my previous blog on the funds distribution topic with Tim Keaney’s (co-CEO at BNY Mellon Asset Servicing) statement at SIBOS that “more than 80% of the tra...

No, I’m not suggesting we are careless or eclectic with our money! Or, are we sometimes – in a way..? I was part of the packed audience in Room 210 at one of the opening sessions, on the Monday morning of SIBOS this year, entitled: The 21st century funds industry: What are the critical success factors? The assembled panel of experts was worthy of t...

From a corporate point of view isn’t SEPA all about being sensible? As usual I find myself jet lagged and awake at 2am following another SIBOS and I look back at all the topics I have been involved with over the years and it suddenly struck me. For the most part SEPA is simply about better housekeeping. Now that I am fully awake I am convinced tha...

In case you don’t know, the Boston Conference and Exhibition Center is located in an urban regeneration area in Boston docks within sight of the central business district. The one topic which seems to be unavoidable at Sibos: SEPA – it even infected the session on US payments – makes me think about how we Europeans are regenerating our payments in...

As you probably can’t have escaped being told, Sibos is in Boston in the 3-year old Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. This year the conference has the potential of robust dialogue between between the US and Europe and, more this year than any other, between banks and the many corporates encouraged to attend. So what am I looking forward to...

Let's remind ourselves, the SWIFTNet Trade Services Utility (TSU) is the result of an initiative started by the banks. The SWIFT Board and twelve banks, among them some of the most international and influential players in the trade services space, decided in late 2002 to form the Trade Services Advisory Group (TSAG) and work on a solution that wou...

3am London time, and the final whistle has been blown in Sydney as the Exhibition closed here at noon on Friday. What of the week ? Swift goes from strength to strength, interesting that the big growth of message volumes is still in Securities. So why the emphasis on Payments (Sepa, Target 2) and Corporates this year ? I suppose that is still t...

Interesting discussion with our Asian colleagues. It is evident that the nature of these markets will require a different approach. Harmonisation is not practical, but some degree of integration and therefore standardisation would be welcomed. Of perhaps even greater interest in the short term is a need for much more information sharing on the imp...
