SWIFT Suite

A dedicated platform for processing, monitoring, and managing SWIFT messages across the post-trade lifecycle. SWIFT Suite centralizes SWIFT operations in one environment to reduce manual handling, improve real-time oversight, and strengthen governance across settlement, custody, reconciliation, and reporting.

Full ISO 15022 (MT) message support with ISO 20022 (MX) format capability, bureau-agnostic connectivity through any SWIFT service bureau, and maker-checker governance — designed to scale SWIFT processing without disrupting existing systems.

Why SWIFT Suite

SWIFT messaging often runs through fragmented tools, manual exception handling, and limited transparency across teams and systems. As transaction volumes increase and operational expectations tighten, institutions need faster investigation, clearer control, and stronger accountability.

SWIFT Suite provides an operational foundation for SWIFT messaging by centralizing message processing, enforcing consistent controls, and delivering real-time visibility into message flow and exceptions.

Centralized SWIFT message operations across post-trade workflows
Reduced manual intervention and operational risk
Real-time visibility into message status, exceptions, and bottlenecks
Strong governance with traceability and audit readiness
Scalable processing as message volumes increase

Message coverage & standards

SWIFT Suite provides full ISO 15022 (MT) message support with ISO 20022 (MX) format capability, built on a licensed, industry-proven SWIFT messaging library. Message templates, field mappings, and validation rules are managed through a visual configurator, so new message types and market-specific variations are introduced through configuration — not code changes.

CategoryMessage types
Settlement instructionsMT540, MT541, MT542, MT543
Settlement confirmationsMT544, MT545, MT546, MT547
Status, processing commands & allegementsMT548, MT530, MT578
Statements & reconciliationMT535 (holdings), MT536 (transactions), MT537 (pending)

All listed message types are supported for both inbound and outbound flows. Additional types and market variations are added through template configuration.

Straight-through processing

From instruction generation to reconciliation, the full message lifecycle runs straight through — with human intervention reserved for approvals and exceptions.

  1. 1

    Generate — settlement instructions are generated automatically from post-trade activity.

  2. 2

    Validate — message content is validated against templates, field mappings, and rules before release.

  3. 3

    Approve — maker-checker approval gates sensitive actions before anything is dispatched.

  4. 4

    Dispatch — instructions are dispatched to the SWIFT network through your service bureau.

  5. 5

    Match — inbound confirmations are matched automatically against outgoing instructions.

  6. 6

    Reconcile — statements of holdings and transactions are reconciled against internal positions.

Exceptions are routed to owned queues with escalation paths — never lost in shared inboxes.
Every message carries a complete lifecycle audit trail, from creation to final status.

Core Components

Three building blocks — processing, connectivity, and oversight

SWIFT Engine
Message processing and validation for inbound and outbound SWIFT traffic.

Key capabilities

  • Parsing, validation, and rules-based routing
  • Message templates and field mappings by SWIFT type
  • Maker-checker controls for sensitive actions and configuration changes
  • Exception workflows with queues, ownership, and escalation paths
  • Message replay and controlled reprocessing with full traceability
  • Full audit logging across message lifecycle events
SWIFT Bridge
Secure connectivity between SWIFT Suite and external institutions and internal systems.

Key capabilities

  • Bureau-agnostic: connects through any SWIFT service bureau via message queues, APIs, and secure file transfer
  • Connectivity to custodians, agent banks, CSDs, and CCPs
  • Integration with internal platforms (OMS, back office, reconciliation, compliance, data stores)
  • Connectivity abstraction that isolates internal systems from network/provider changes
  • Resilience controls including queuing behavior, retries, and timeouts
  • Connectivity health and status visibility to distinguish processing vs connectivity delays
  • Secure access controls aligned to enterprise operational governance
SWIFT Monitor
Operational oversight and control for SWIFT message flows.

Key capabilities

  • Live operational dashboards across status and severity (stuck, critical, completed, in-progress, rejected)
  • Stuck-message detection with aging indicators to highlight items outside expected timelines
  • Advanced filtering for fast triage (type, severity, operator, IDs, reference, date range)
  • Investigation views with drill-down logs and searchable history
  • Logical and raw message views to support validation and investigation
  • End-to-end audit trail timeline for governance and root-cause analysis
  • Exportable reporting to support oversight and operational reviews
  • Role-based access controls to align actions with internal governance policies
