2026 mid-year transparency report published

IWB has published its mid-year transparency report covering January through June 2026. The report summarises settlement volumes, system availability, audit findings and the status of commitments made to member governments.

Key figures include 99.98 percent platform availability, a median settlement time of 41 minutes for cross-border transfers, and no unresolved findings from the external audit of the settlement ledger.

The report also sets out operating costs and how fee income was applied, including contributions to the reserve fund required by the IWB charter.

The full report is reviewed by the Audit and Risk Committee and made available to all member institutions. Questions can be sent to the Office of the Secretary General through the contact page.
