How does SWIFT work?

The SWIFT network provides a secure means of transmitting financial messages between banks and other financial institutions. The messages are sent over a secure network using a standard set of protocols. SWIFT also provides a directory of banks and other financial institutions that are connected to the network.

SWIFT messages are typically used for international wire transfers and other financial transactions. The sender of a SWIFT message must have a valid account with a financial institution that is connected to the SWIFT network. The recipient of a SWIFT message must also have a valid account with a financial institution that is connected to the SWIFT network.

When a sender initiates a transaction, they will send a SWIFT message to the recipient’s financial institution. The message will contain instructions on how to process the transaction. The recipient’s financial institution will then either approve or reject the transaction. If the transaction is approved, the funds will be transferred and the sender will receive a confirmation message.
