Over the last forty years, SWIFT has served the financial services sector as proprietary communications platform, provider of products and services, standards developer, and conference organizer ('Sibos'). Founded to create efficiencies by replacing telegram and telex (or 'wires') for international payments, SWIFT now forms a core part of the financial services infrastructure... In this book the authors focus on how the design and current state of SWIFT were influenced by its historical origins, presenting a comprehensive account in a succinct form which provides an informative guide to the history, structure, activities, and future challenges of this key international organization."--
