## ISO 20022 identification

As an agent in a Swift cross-border payment message (CBPR+)

A CBPR+ message identifies this institution by its BIC, and may add its LEI or a clearing code. CBPR+ does not allow a name and postal address next to a BIC.

- **Identified by:** BIC, with its LEI
- **Roles in CBPR+:** Any agent, including the instructing and instructed agents

### CBPR+

For cross-border payments on Swift: the BIC, with the LEI and clearing code where known

```xml
<FinInstnId>
  <BICFI>MSFFDEFXXXX</BICFI>
  <LEI>7CPI4ZQUQVBDH8SA1F44</LEI>
</FinInstnId>
```

### Full record

Every ISO 20022 element the directory holds. Base ISO 20022 allows them together. CBPR+ does not allow a name and address next to a BIC

2 national bank codes route to this BIC. The blocks add none, because the right one depends on the account.

The BIC, name and address are as published in Swift’s BIC directory. The LEI comes from the Swift and GLEIF BIC-to-LEI file. Check them against your own records before use.

## Payment schemes and systems

EPC registers of 2026-09-11 · ECB T2 list of 2026-07-02 · ECB TIPS list of 2026-09-01 · SIX Bank Master valid on 2026-09-28

The T2 list names direct participants only and gives no joining date. SIX Bank Master entries have no joining date.

An institution missing from T2 may still be reachable through an indirect participant.

The SIX Bank Master also lists participants outside Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

“ISO 20022 messages” marks a scheme or system whose rulebook or operator specifies ISO 20022 for messages between participants.

This is the Morgan Stanley Europe SE settlement instructions directory for cleared derivatives (Europe/Asia), dated October 2025. Every cash row names Morgan Stanley Bank AG (MSFFDEFXXXX) as beneficiary, so these are the bank's own accounts at other banks. All 22 cash rows and all 7 securities rows were extracted. For ILS the intermediary is Citibank N.A., Israel (CITIILIT, account IL380220010000300018009). For USD the source also gives ABA 021000089. For US Treasuries the source gives only ABA 021000018 for Bank of New York, and no BIC. Clients must also quote their MSESE account reference. A separate Fixed Income Securities SSI PDF also lists MSFFDEFXXXX but was not extracted. 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checked against the Swift directory: a BIC missing from it, or registered to a differently named bank, may be a typo or out of date.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.
