This is the most important report for anyone in cross border payments or remittances.
Looks like another data standard. But is quietly critical. Why?
The last mile of cross border payments is where the cost and complexity is. Local payment systems oftendont support all the data needed for managing fraud or preventing erorrs.
This is why there's so much cost and friction in cross border payments.
As countries like Singapore and India link their local payment systems they're doing so with ISO20022.
FedNow, UPI, Pix and the UK's new payment architecture all support ISO2022. As will efforts by the EU interlinking program.
This means by ~2027 real time cross border payments would be available between GBP, USD, EUR and and India.

Lee works for us. He's not single (shocker) & earns more than 80k, rents a hotel room in Central London at our expense, spends hundreds of pounds a month on travelling to work at our expense and slags people off for using foodbanks.
Lee makes no point at all.

If there was a piss-up at No 10 last Christmas it’s very unlikely Boris organised it. Because, well, you know.

I don’t get the “debate” surrounding Matt Hancock. He’s now openly admitted he broke his own rules. So either the Government formally adopts the position “we don’t have to abide by the rules, but you lot do”. Or he has to step down. It’s that simple.
