The need for ISO 20022 Market Practice. Yes please.

The need for market practice has not changed simply because we have introduced a new syntax… in fact, for a good number of years market practice organisations such as ISITC have shifted the focus of their market practice documentation towards a more syntax-neutral and data-centric view.

Standards Forum Flight 12: You are cleared for take-off.

Here we go again. Time to get your geek on. In Forums past we’ve talked endlessly about ISO 20022, explaining what it is, what it isn’t… we’ve argued for adoption where it makes sense, and perhaps sometimes (in hindsight) where it didn’t necessarily make the most sense… but we argued anyway because deep down we know it’s the right thing to do!

Security in the Finance Sector: Who’s Role Is It Anyway?

Despite increasing regulations across the finance sector globally, fraud and associated risks continue to increase—and at a staggering pace.

When Immediate Payments Go Bad

“I want it now.” Sounds like a petulant teenager, doesn’t it? But actually, it’s the sound of consumers and corporations around the world demanding immediate payments solutions. While immediate payments are already mature in some markets, in others they are still maturing, and for some countries, they are not even in the plans yet. But one thing...

Global Bank Disruption and Potential Counter Strategies: Moving from 'Keep Up' to 'Step Up'

In the past year or two, the pace of change has accelerated rapidly in the transaction banking industry. Disruption to business models is not far behind what we see taking place in retail banking, as competition increases, new market entrants move into traditional banking areas, such as FX and payments, and out-innovate their traditional banking p...

KYC: Getting the green light to transact

Banks, buysides and corporates are all squaring up to the demands of KYC. One thing they all have in common is the tussle between gathering accurate information and trade execution. Whether it’s creating a new account or trading in a different jurisdiction, there’s a do not pass go unless compliance checks are complete. The challenge to getting th...

:72:THE ANNUAL STANDARDS RELEASE AND THE NOTION OF STANDARDS DEBT

An old journalist buddy of mine once confessed to me that he only had three basic story outlines; and for each article he wrote he simply had to pick the most appropriate one and modify to suit. As I sat down to think about this piece I can emphasize with my friend. There’s only so many ways one can say STP-is-a-good-thing. There’s only so many w...
