Payment Channels: Wire Transfers
About This Course
In this class with the Payments Professor, you'll explore wire transfers as a key payment network in the U.S. Discover how Fedwire® and CHIPS® power high-value, time-sensitive domestic and international payments. You'll learn the full wire process—from sender to settlement—along with the required information, risk controls, fraud concerns, and evolving standards like ISO® 20022. The course covers the differences between Fedwire® and CHIPS®, security and compliance obligations (including AML and OFAC), and how wire transfers compare to modern instant payment options like RTP® and FedNow®. Whether you're new to wires or brushing up, you'll leave wired with knowledge.
