Confidential 'Standard Cash Settlement Instructions' PDF signed by Santander Global Corporate Banking. It is dated 21 June 2022 (file name) and is probably stale: several correspondents are named as they were in 2022 (e.g. Credit Suisse, Bank Zachodni WBK, Citibank NA Moscow). The document states it does not apply to ABBYGB2LXXX or ABBYGB3EXXX, so it relates to another Santander UK plc BIC that is not named. All 30 rows were extracted. The GBP row is the bank's own account (ABBYGB3E), so its direction is marked unknown. A GBP Faster Payment/BACS alternative is also printed: sort code 09-00-97, a/c 90002080. For RUB the intermediary is Citibank NA Moscow (CITIRUMXXXX), BIK 044525202, central bank account 30111810700400003069. 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checked against the Swift directory: a BIC missing from it, or registered to a differently named bank, may be a typo or out of date.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.
