Cash Management Update: ISO20022 Wire Transfers
The current Federal Reserve wire format (FAIM) is being replaced on July 14th with the global standard format, ISO20022. All wires must be in compliance with ISO20022 by July 14, 2025.
Please be sure to save any wire templates before July 11, as they will be deleted during the system upgrade. TSB will not be responsible for any information that is not saved prior to July 11.
