Belgium is home to SWIFT's global headquarters in La Hulpe, giving the country unique significance in international payment infrastructure. KBC, BNP Paribas Fortis, and ING Belgium are the dominant institutions, and Brussels hosts many EU institutions whose payment flows contribute to the NBB's high TARGET2 volumes. Belgium's dense correspondent network with France, Germany, and the Netherlands makes it a natural Euro-zone transit point.
