ANZ ISO20022 Market Study
Beginning in November 2022, ANZ will be supporting the industry wide migration of cross border messaging from the existing MT/FIN standard to the new ISO20022/MX standard.
ANZ commissioned FImetrix to conduct a study among a select representative sample of key clients across various geographies. Key findings were:
- 3 out of 4 clients will be capable of sending some ISO messages on Day 1, and nearly all key clients will be able to accept
- The vast majority will on-forward messages in the format that they receive
- Most key clients intend to use richer information in 2022, but implementation to send is likely to occur later
- Majority of key clients expect to send transaction messages (payments) on Day 1 with development of non-value messaging (statements / notifications / amendments / cancellations) occurring later during the coexistence period
