Summary: ISO20022 migration of SWIFT & RTGS clearings
ISO20022 is now the global standard for payment messages. A number of High Value Payment systems
(RTGS Clearings) such as TARGET2, CHATS Hong Kong, CHAPS UK and Fedwire US will adopt ISO20022
messaging standards and go live from Nov 2021 onwards with a big bang migration (i.e. no co-
existence period for MT messages for RTGS clearings#).
Further, SWIFT is also migrating to ISO20022 (MX) messaging standards for cross border payments from
November 2021. However, a key difference is that SWIFT will support a four year coexistence period
(from Nov 2021 to 2025) to allow all member banks of the SWIFT community to make the full switch by
the end of 2025#.
Temenos will provide comprehensive solution for all its existing and new clients to meet all requirements
arising from these industry changes:-
Temenos Payments will support full ISO20022 messaging standards for SWIFT cross border payments &
RTGS clearings (refer to slide 7 for full details)
Existing FT clients have the option to a.) Migrate to Temenos Payments (recommended option) or b.) go
with MX to MT conversion using the SWIFT translator integrated with Delivery (DE) module (refer to slide 8
for more details)

Migration options for FT clients
Nov 2021
2021-2025
Start of SWIFT migration and Big Bang
Timelines (4 years co-existence period for SWIFT cross From Nov 2025
migration for RTGS Clearings (TARGET2,
border payments)
EURO1, CHATS etc.)
Requirements 1. All SWIFT member banks should have minimum capability to receive ISO 20022 payment All SWIFT member banks
messages (maybe with translation). send and receive ISO20022
(Note - #3 only 2. SWIFT members also need to build capabilities for full ISO support – i.e. send and receive payment messages (full
applicable for banks ISO20022 messages and support all the related workflows and additional data, in time for ISO20022 support)
connected to RTGS full migration by Nov 2025.
clearings) 3. Member banks of RTGS clearings to send and receive ISO 20022 payment messages
using full data set for payment processing.
Option 1 Upgrade to R18+ release and migrate to Temenos Payments (TP or TPH) to fully support ISO20022 messages for cross border
payments and RTGS clearings.
This option addresses all requirements mentioned above and delivers a ISO20022 ready solution for Nov 2025 and beyond.
Option 2 If upgrade is not at all an option, consider installing standalone TPH and implement TPH for cross border payments and
RTGS clearings and integrate with existing T24 (minimum release R14).
This option addresses the requirements mentioned above, but may involve additional integration work.
Option 3 Use FT to receive ISO20022 SWIFT payment messages via SWIFT Central translation API or This option does not meet
SWIFT local translator (FT will be enhanced to support these translation options). Integration the requirements from Nov
to SWIFT translation services will be available in R20 AMR release. 2025
This option covers only requirement 1. It will not provide full ISO support for SWIFT and RTGS
clearings.
Recommendation Option 1 is ideal for majority of the clients and provides a future ready solution
Option 2 is suitable for clients that cannot plan an upgrade in the foreseeable future. Future ready solution.
Option 3 is an interim solution till Nov 2025, by which time the bank should have chosen option 1 or 2.
Note: Upon request, FT translator changes can be back-patched to older T24 Transact releases if there is a specific client requirement. 8
Back-patches will be chargeable.
Options for existing T24 clients using non payment
modules to send out SWIFT payments
Non-payment modules of T24 such as FX, MM, LC, MD, SC, DX, etc. (for full list refer Appendix) also
currently support generation of outward SWIFT MT payment messages (for settlements). These modules are
being enhanced to generate Payment Orders (refer Appendix for details) for execution of SWIFT payments
using Temenos Payments (TP/TPH) or an external payment system.
Also, these modules will provide the ability to use the SWIFT translators or any 3rd party translator solution (of
the bank’s choice) to convert MT to ISO20022. Integration to SWIFT translator will be available in R20 AMR
release.
Until Nov 2025 there is no impact as our clients can continue to send MT messages to SWIFT. If required,
they can choose to convert MT messages to ISO20022 (MX) messages using the SWIFT translator (central or
local).
From Nov 2025, clients using non-payment modules and directly connected to SWIFT for cross border
payments, must also upgrade and implement Temenos Payments (TP/TPH), to generate Payment Orders
and process them via Temenos Payments.
