    Going into operation for migration to remoteGATE Handbook for payments via SWIFT

    A.5.4 Responsibility for services

    The person in charge of services is the point of contact for a particular service. A
    financial institution appoints one person for each service, who may be responsible for
    more than one service.

    A.5.5 SWIFT Closed User Group

    SIX Interbank Clearing is a SWIFT participant in the PCH (Payments Clearing House)
    category. Financial institutions must register their participation in the CUG (Closed
    User Group) online with SWIFT. SWIFT requires about two to three weeks to process
    this registration. SWIFT informs the financial institution directly when it has been
    included in the CUG. Details of the registration are to be found in Section G.

    A.5.6 SWIFT test system

    For the tests, the participant must make available a functioning SWIFT acceptance
    test environment including their own SWIFT test BIC. The sending of messages using
    a production BIC to the SIX Interbank Clearing test system and vice versa is not pos-
    sible. For test purposes, the SWIFT test BIC of the financial institution is required.
    The new participant must inform SIX Interbank Clearing immediately if
    a) they have no SWIFT test environment in which to send and receive messages.
    b) they are unable to test all the messages prescribed in the acceptance testing
    process.
    SIX Interbank Clearing makes adequate credit for test purposes available every day at
    the start of clearing. Apart from the different clearing times (approx. 12.00 CET), the
    test system offers the same conditions as the production system.

    A.5.7 SWIFT Relation Management Authorisation (RMA)

    RMA is carried out shortly before test and production operation begin. To do this, SIX
    Interbank Clearing will contact the bank.

    A.5.8 Tests before production starts

    Every financial institution must complete an acceptance test before production can
    begin. During this time, the customers can familiarise themselves with SIX Interbank
    Clearing's systems and acquire the necessary knowledge about, for example, correct
    formatting of payments. SIX Interbank Clearing makes its test environment available
    for this purpose.
    The test consists of a so-called compulsory part and an "optional" part. The voluntary
    tests serve to ensure that financial institutions are able to produce all the required
    message types. Details on the tests can be found in Section F. It is recommended that
    all the examples shown there are tested.
    The test process is supported by the Operations Center. This should therefore be notified
    before testing begins, by phone +41 58 399 4200 or by e-mail to operations@six-
    group.com.
