It marks the final, non-negotiable end of the “co-existence period,” where old MT and new MX formats operated side-by-side.

This standard is designed to enhance cross-border wire transfers, securities settlements, and institutional payment messaging. It replaces older, text-based systems with structured, metadata-rich formats. This new structure enables faster, more transparent communication between banks, payment processors, and digital asset networks. The global rollout, however, has faced multiple setbacks.

SWIFT previously delayed the migration from November 2021 to 2022 before finalizing.
