New development in payment regulation

Vladimir Kulipanov 7th IRSF, ICAP, LondonApril 14, 2010

17

Full membership in BESP

On August 6th, 2010 all domestic non-BESP banks will automatically become Associated BESP members. Nothing needs to be done on their side.

18

Directory of correlation between SWIFT’s and CBR’s BIC codes

CBR will introduce the Directory of correlation between SWIFT & CBR BIC codes. That will enable automatic conversion of Bank IDs from SWIFT messages to CBR formats and vice versa.

19

News in 2-P Regulation

If the originator of the payment instruction is non RF resident (client or bank), then the correspondent RF resident Beneficiary Bank will be allowed at its own discretion and its own risk to neglect the discrepancies between the text field “Beneficiary Name” and the true name of the Beneficiary. This opportunity should be put in the Banking Account Contract between the Beneficiary and the Beneficiary Bank in advance.

By the end of 2010…

20

New form of payment order

New form of payment order will be introduced in addition to existing one. The usage is voluntary.

This form will enable indication of intermediary banks (up to 3) in addition to Originator Bank and Beneficiary Bank.

This form and the mapping fields allow 100% STP conversion from SWIFT MT103 and SWIFT MT202 to CBR formats and vice versa.

By the end of 2010…

21

CLS membership work plan

The CBR Chairman decided to start the process of joining CLS system.

The internal work plan is now being drafted.

Thank you for attention!
