The current version is CSCF v2025 and all financial institutions must do a compliance assessment no later than December 31, 2025. SWIFT customers have to carry out an evaluation of compliance with the mandatory requirements that apply to them according to their type of infrastructure (A1, A2, A3, A4 and B) before December 31, 2025 and declare them in the KYC-SA platform of SWIFT.
SWIFT, to provide transparency, will securely publish attestations through the “KYC SA”. The attestations are visible by all users on KYC SA, however, level of compliance is only visible by counterparties that were granted access.
The current version, SWIFT CSCF v2025, published in mid-2024, has 32 requirements, of which 25 are “mandatory” and 7 are “recommended”.
In July 2024, SWIFT released version CSCF v2025, which provides guidance on implementation guidelines and includes changes to the requirements from the previous version.
