How Banks Are Modernizing Core Payments Without Disruption

The resilience challenge facing payments leaders has fundamentally changed. Cyber-attacks can isolate core systems. Economic shocks compress liquidity timelines. Rail outages expose hidden dependencies. Geopolitical events can make entire regions inaccessible at once. 

Regulators expect institutions to demonstrate resilience beyond documented plans. Customers expect payments to clear regardless of circumstances. And boards expect confidence that the most severe scenarios have been considered and prepared for. 

Join Accenture, Payments:Unpacked and Bottomline as they address the uncomfortable but necessary question: What happens to payment operations when the assumptions behind traditional Disaster Recovery are no longer applicable?

Why The November Deadline is a Critical Point of ISO 20022

At EBAday in Copenhagen, Edward Ireland, Product Director, Bottomline discussed the upcoming structured fields deadline in November with FinextraTV. Ireland described it as a struggle and as 'the ongoing ISO 20022 story', explaining how organisations need to have a higher level of detail than ever before and each year feels like a new challenge to face. Ireland described the structured fields as a critical priority within the wider ISO story, and how banking customers are more suspicious and uncertain about the ability to meet the November deadline, than the banks themselves. He also provided clear definition behind the updates to Exceptions and Investigations.

Sibos 2026 Asks Whether Payments Modernization is Delivering

The Sibos 2026 annual conference opens September 28 at a decisive moment for the payments industry. Fraud pressure is intensifying. Banks must prove the return on years of ISO 20022 investment. AI has to move from pilots into production. Cross-border payments face higher expectations for speed, cost and transparency. Corporate customers expect real-time visibility, smarter validation, and practical access to emerging technologies.

That makes this year’s Swift conference more than deadlines. The bigger question is whether financial institutions can turn modernization into measurable gains in fraud prevention, operational resilience, customer experience, and payment economics.
