Corporate use of SWIFT continues to spread. In the past year, $58 billion Dow Chemical has moved roughly 60% of its bulk A/P payments onto SWIFT. All treasury transactions now go through SWIFT, reports Andreas Unterste, director of financial operations, compliance and technology in Dow’s treasury, and all the bank information that treasury and accounting need is imported through SWIFT. Large multinationals like Midland, Mich.-based Dow are moving more of their bank communications onto SWIFT. The requirements for accessing SWIFT through the Score model are being relaxed to permit more corporations and governments to join.
