This is the 'MSESE Settlement Instructions Directory' for Morgan Stanley Derivatives Clearing (futures and cleared swaps), dated October 2025. It has 22 cash rows and 7 securities rows, all extracted. Every row names Morgan Stanley Bank AG (BIC MSFFDEFXXXX) as beneficiary, and Morgan Stanley Bank AG is a subsidiary of this entity. These are therefore not this entity's own nostro accounts, so direction is set to unknown. Clients must quote their 045-7xxxx or 061-7Zxxx account in the payment. Group-wide cash equity (March 2025) and fixed income (February 2024) SSI PDFs also have an MSESE column, again with beneficiary BIC MSFFDEFX(XXX). Those two PDFs were not fetched or 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checked against the Swift directory: a BIC missing from it, or registered to a differently named bank, may be a typo or out of date.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.
