made up of:
- 4 letters: Institution Code or
bank code.
- 2 letters: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2
country code
- 2 letters or digits: location code
- if the second character is "0", then
it is typically a test BIC as opposed to a BIC used on the live network.
- if the second character is "1", then
it denotes a passive participant in the SWIFT network
- if the second character is "2", then
it typically indicates a reverse billing BIC, where the recipient pays
for the message. As opposed to the more usual mode whereby the sender
pays for the message.
- 3 letters or digits: branch code,
optional ('XXX' for primary office)
Where an 8-digit code is given, it may be assumed that it refers to
the primary office.
