The major interbank payments systems (CHAPS, Faster Payments, Bacs) are moving to the global messaging standard for payments, known as ‘ISO 20022’. In June 2018, the Bank of England in conjunction with Pay.UK and the Payment System Regulator (PSR) consulted on the adoption of ISO 20022. The coordinated adoption of a single standard across interbank payment systems will bring many benefits for payments providers, and for the businesses and households they serve.
There were over 70 responses to the consultation from a diverse range of stakeholders, The responses were largely supportive of the proposals in the consultation paper. In particular, there was broad consensus to introduce the Common Credit Message (CCM), which aims to harmonise messaging across the UK’s main interbank payment systems. There was wide support for how the CCM will be introduced for CHAPS payments, including when additional data, such as the use of Legal Entity Identifiers (LEI) for transactions between financial institutions, will become mandatory. Certain changes have been made to the proposals, to reflect industry feedback since the consultation was launched; these are explained in our response document and will be reflected as we move to implementation.
To find out more about the results of the consultation, the latest timeline for the migration to ISO 20022, and next steps for implementation, please visit the Bank’s website.

Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.

The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.
Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.
Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.
