At the center of this is the Swift network, which is often considered relatively inflexible and lacking in transparency. With Russia recently kicked off of the network, Russia and other countries (e.g. China, India) are doubling down on their own Swift alternatives. Even if such systems do not come to replace Swift, they will inevitably have an impact on improving it. In addition to these systems, cross-border payments are being disrupted by government-backed efforts to link systems and more easily allow customers to access and use their funds in different countries. Swift has much work to do if it is to survive the onslaught of challenges it is facing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"rpbt_shortcode\">\n\n<div id='rpbt-related-gallery-1' class='gallery related-gallery related-galleryid-16788 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='Huawei, Forms Syntron release distributed open platform solution for banks'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/huawei-forms-syntron-release-distributed-open-platform-solution-for-banks\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/huawei-forms-syntron-release-distributed-open-platform-solution-for-banks-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-12986\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-12986'>\n\t\t\t\tHuawei, Forms Syntron release distributed open platform solution for banks\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='New report highlights central bank digital currencies'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/new-report-highlights-central-bank-digital-currencies\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/e7602b45-64aa-43c8-a9c1-1b901d19fdc21-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-15479\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-15479'>\n\t\t\t\tNew report highlights central bank digital currencies\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='Russian bank launches app to teach children about finances'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/russian-bank-launches-app-to-teach-children-about-finances\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/girl-taking-picture-with-phone-in-studio_23-2147825022-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-10219\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-10219'>\n\t\t\t\tRussian bank launches app to teach children about finances\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Domestic digital payment usage surged during the pandemic, and now customers are increasingly demanding a similar revolution in cross-border payments.
