domains – Payments, Securities, Trade, Card and FX

ISO 20022 Business Case Assessment
Strategic Reasons to Consider ISO 20022 Adoption in the U.S. Market
Strategic Reason Description
Global Momentum Large U.S. corporates and banks are actively adopting ISO 20022 and that is
expected to continue.
Global Competition Compatibility with the ISO 20022 format enables the United States to maintain
parity with other global markets and U.S. dollar clearing systems in other
jurisdictions that are adopting ISO 20022 messaging, which may help preserve the
attractiveness of the U.S. dollar as a global currency.
Cost Savings &
Processing Efficiency
Standardizing message formats allows for consolidation of payments platforms at
banks and corporations, which could promote straight-through processing and
drive down costs.
Consistent & Rich Data The ISO 20022 format enables all parties to leverage a common set of data
dictionary elements and expands capacity to carry rich data in the payment
message.
Interoperability A common format promotes ease of transacting domestically and globally by
using a single, open standard rather than multiple proprietary standards.
Agility to meet evolving
regulatory needs
The ISO 20022 format provides for full originator and receiver information (third
party or ultimate beneficiary) allowing for improved regulatory reporting and
monitoring.
New, innovative
products
A common format across systems reduces the amount of change required to
bring innovative new products and services to market.
