## National bank codes

| Code | Routes to BIC | Name in the national file | City |

Each code shows the name in the national file. Smaller banks often route through a central institution’s BIC. A code can therefore belong to a different bank than the one on this page.

Three-page PDF 'Standard Settlement Instructions and Cut-off times' for BKBBCHBBXXX. It covers foreign exchange, money market, currency options, interest rate derivatives, precious metals and securities lending (cash). The document is effective from 1 August 2025. All 26 currency rows and 6 precious-metal rows were extracted. Where the document routes an account 'through' an intermediary, the purpose field names that intermediary. Precious-metal rows give no account numbers. The CHF row gives a Swiss Interbank Clearing BC number (007704), not a BIC. Each correspondent BIC is checked against the Swift directory: a BIC missing from it, or registered to a differently named bank, may be a typo or out of date. Confirm settlement instructions with the bank before relying on them.

Sources & method

Every value comes from a public source, such as Swift’s ISO 9362 BIC directory, GLEIF or the OFAC and EU sanctions lists. Most sources are matched on a BIC or an LEI, not on a name.

Swift GPI membership is matched on names and is indicative. A missing sanctions match does not mean that no listing applies. Always screen against the official lists.

The sanctions facts on this page cover the BIC and its LEI only.

An institution is one entry in the directory: a BIC8 in Swift’s directory, or a firm on a tracked register that holds no BIC. Licences held by an institution with a BIC are shown on its page.

## Assess the financial crime risk behind a BIC

A BIC identifies an institution; it does not assess it. The [Elucidate FinCrime Index (EFI)](https://elucidate.co/ratings) is an independent score of the financial crime risk of banks, built for correspondent banking and counterparty due diligence.
