SCORE offering

Eligibility

  • Swift reserves the right to monitor the eligibility status of the corporate.
  • Financial institutions are only allowed to subscribe to SCORE if they are supervised.

Eligibility scenarios

  • The corporate is recommended by a financial institution that is located in a FATF member country and that participates in SCORE. The recommendation means that the financial institution is willing to exchange traffic with that corporate over SwiftNet.
  • The corporate is listed on a regulated stock exchange of a country that is a member of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
  • The corporate is a majority-owned subsidiary of an eligible company as per point 2, and it meets the following conditions:
    • Is a duly incorporated, validly existing, and duly organised legal entity.
    • Is in good standing financially and with respect to its compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
    • Is subject to regular audit by an independent audit firm in accordance with internationally recognised accounting standards.
    • In addition, the subsidiary must submit to Swift a declaration of ownership from its listed parent company. It must state that the parent company is listed in one of the FATF countries and has a majority ownership of the subsidiary.
       

Changes in eligibility status (examples and guidance)

In case of a company de-listing, or if there is no traffic between a recommending financial institution and the corporate, the corporate is given a six month period to take one of the following actions:

  • Migrate to an alternative solution, for example, a Member-Administered Closed User Group (MA-CUG).
  • Find a substitute recommendation.
  • If the corporate fails to implement either action, then Swift reserves the right to terminate upon notice the corporate's participation in SCORE.
