especially for international wire transfers and exchange of other messages
between banks. The codes are sometimes found on account statements too.
The SWIFT code is 8 or 11 characters that are formed as following:
The first 4 letters represents the Institution Code or bank code.
The next 2 letter forms ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code
The nest 2 letters or digits indicates location code
Note: if the second character is "0", then it is typically a test BIC as opposed to a
BIC used on the live network.
if the second character is "1", then it denotes a passive participant in the SWIFT
network
if the second character is "2", then it typically indicates a reverse billing BIC,
where the recipient pays for the message as opposed to the more usual mode
whereby the sender pays for the message.

office)
