CCI via SWIFTNet

CCI via SWIFTNet

Euroclear’s Single Platform consolidates and harmonises settlement and custody services across all markets where Euroclear is active. The Common Communication Interface (CCI) is how Euroclear users will access this new platform. 

SWIFT has been selected as one of the key providers of secure messaging services for Euroclear’s Common Communication Interface (CCI). Current SWIFT/Euroclear users will be able to upgrade their existing SWIFT connection to access CCI, thus achieving a simple migration process.

Connecting to Euroclear’s Single Platform is possible through CCI over SWIFTNet, using a combination of the three channels below:

  • AutoFlow messaging - This STP message-by-message channel uses FIN and InterAct (based on ISO 15022 and 20022 message standards)
  • AutoFlow File Transfer - This STP file-transfer channel uses FileAct (file contents are based on ISO 15022 and ISO 20022 message standards)
  • ScreenFlow - A mandatory, manual channel (CCI Screen): This Euroclear GUI will connect through a Alliance Gateway equipped with a Webservices Host Adapter (WSHA)
