Cross-Border Payments Infrastructure

Roundtable Overview

SWIFT’s new pricing is now live. Three ASEAN bilateral corridors are already processing real volume. Decisions on participation in Project Nexus are beginning to open up. And legacy payment hubs at several major Singapore banks are approaching end-of-life. Each of these forces an infrastructure investment decision — and they are all arriving in the same planning cycle. This roundtable brings together heads of transaction banking and correspondent banking to examine the trade-offs and what the banks furthest along in these decisions are choosing.
