To achieve truly functional instant payments across Europe it is important to have interoperability at the heart of any new system, to ensure compatibility and to prevent barriers that could hamper the effectiveness of such a scheme. When designing an Instant payments scheme there should be a dual focus on domestic/national level payments and cross-border payments, to ensure a seamless integration.

Everything on this page comes from SWIFT’s own submissions to the European Commission — we have added nothing and interpreted nothing.
