5 Emerging Clearing Systems in Asia Emerging trend in Asia: Development of in-country or regional USD clearing system in financial hubs: Recognition that payments are faster when settlement occurs locally; To facilitate respective countries commercial flows, thus creating a shift in commercial payments offshore from the US. Driving factors are: Fast growth of Intra-Asia payment flows (i.e. 18%) Market pressure to deliver USD payments to the beneficiary in Asia on same day. Rationale for creating value to expedite payments into Asia: The complexity of payment infrastructures in Asia are hierarchical, thus creating inherent delays in payment delivery. To encourage better account consolidation and cash concentration, thus overcoming the issue of liquidity fragmentation. Creating the optimal funding model for both treasury and commercial payments. 4

7 Market Demands Greater China and Japan Greater China Common challenges - lead time of between 3 to 4 days when making payment to sub-branch level. Geographical barrier to make payment within China on the same day. Japan JPM pioneered Tokyo Dollar Clearing (TDC) in TDC mitigates FX settlement risk by settling the USD leg of an FX transaction during Tokyo business hours. Difficulty in identifying the growing number of bank branches in provinces, cities and remote areas. Beijing Hong Kong Taipei 6 Growth of commercial payment flows in Asia region resulting in greater demand for same day settlement of commercial payments. Tokyo

13 MT 202 COV Introduction MT202 History Bank to bank transfers used to settle trade, treasury and commercial transactions In case of the latter, sent in cover of a commercial payment (e.g. MT103) These cover payments typically used to bridge time-zone differences and mitigate fees Contain no reference to ordering and/or beneficiary party Implications Lack of transparency to ordering/beneficiary party prevents effective compliance by banks with local regulations related to payment screening In turn, this impacts efforts to control money laundering, terrorist financing and sanctions compliance Industry Response ( ) Private sector recognized need to create workable solution; Wolfsberg Group, Clearing House Association and others take up the initiative. BIS/Basel Committee outlines expectations of banks and their regulators in ensuring cover intermediary banks receive originator and beneficiary information 12

14 MT 202 COV Introduction Industry Solution New message type MT202COV, to be used in cover of MT102 and MT103 messages To be implemented by SWIFT and major clearing systems in November

15 MT 202 COV Current State Scope of Implementation Specific to MT202COV, but also includes new MT205COV (domestic customer credit transfer) To be used in cover of MT102, 102+, 103, 103+ messages Standard MT202 s remain in effect and are legitimate for treasury and trade settlements. SWIFT requires members be able to receive and process the new message types. SWIFT states that members should use the MT202COV for cover payments Global; applies to all currencies Industry Readiness On schedule for SWIFT 2009 Standards Release Major payment systems/networks (e.g. Fed, CHIPS, SEPA, etc) are ready Interviews with JPM clients indicate majority of clients are planning to implement and are on schedule Some countries systems to be ready 2010 (e.g. Bank of Japan) 14

16 MT 202 COV Compliance Questions Is use of the MT202COV is mandatory and/or regulated? SWIFT requires members to be able to receive, and that those members using the cover payment method should use, the MT202COV. Governmental regulation and enforcement is country-specific. BIS stipulates supervisory expectations that originating banks must ensure presence of originator & beneficiary information in messages sent to covering intermediary banks Why should we adopt? What will happen if we don t? The underlying rationale for increased transparency is sound, and in keeping with all historical precedents (AML, FATF SR7, EU Reg 1781, etc). Rapid market adoption will moderate regulatory scrutiny Apathy may accelerate and complicate it, possibly including additional measures What are our MT202COV obligations? As originating banks, we must include ordering and beneficiary party information As intermediary banks, we must (1) screen payment information and (2) monitor messages on a post-transaction basis for suspicious activity as is currently done today. 15 As global banks, we must endorse and promote greater transparency

17 MT 202 COV Other Key Questions Transaction Processing Will MT202COV messages result in delayed payments due to sanctions screening filters? It is possible. Banks obligations to scan all messages remain unchanged. However incidence of true delays beyond value date are rare. Will Beneficiary Banks continue to act on the strength of the MT103 prior to receiving the covering funds? Payment policy varies even today from bank to bank. It is possible the MT202COV may cause banks to take additional precautions. If so, will we be notified and how? The PMPG recommends, upon delay in processing of an MT202COV: The receiver of the MT202COV advise the remitting bank via MT299 The remitting/ordering bank advise the beneficiary bank via MT199 JPMorgan will advise COVDELAYs for overnight holds. Ordering Customer 16 Ordering Customer s bank 299 Sender s Correspondent Clearing & settlement 299 Beneficiary Customer s bank Receiver s Correspondent Beneficiary Customer

18 MT 202 COV Other Key Questions Charges and Advising Will the MT202COV result in additional charges or fees? COV remains an inter-bank transfer and should thus not bear any deductions. It is also unlikely banks will charge an additional fee to avoid penalizing clients for compliance. Will our cover payments be advised by a different or new message type? COV only introduces an additional sequence of data. Methods of advising (e.g. MT910, MT940, MT950) should remain unchanged. What options do we have? If not already done so, update your systems to 202COV to support the use of cover payments. Convert to MT103 serial payments. With 24 hour processing, pre-advising and extensive principal preservation capabilities, rationale for cover payments diminishing. Dialogue with your regulators 17
