คำตอบของ Ohmyfin อยู่ด้านล่าง (เป็นภาษาอังกฤษ)
A correspondent bank is an intermediary bank that processes a cross-border SWIFT payment on behalf of another bank that does not have a direct banking relationship with the beneficiary's bank. Most international SWIFT payments pass through one or two correspondents — each one charges a fee and may deduct it from the payment amount.
When your bank wants to send money to a bank in another country, it rarely has a direct account (nostro account) with that specific bank. Instead, it routes the payment through one or two correspondent banks that have pre-arranged nostro/vostro account relationships with both ends of the chain.
Each correspondent bank in the chain is visible in the SWIFT GPI tracker — Ohmyfin shows which correspondent currently holds the payment, when it entered and left each bank, and any fees deducted at that leg.
Correspondent banks are the main cause of unexpected fee deductions. If the charge bearer is SHA, the beneficiary bank deducts its own incoming fee; each correspondent may also deduct a transit fee. OUR means the sender pays all fees up front and the beneficiary receives the full amount.
Major global correspondents include JPMorgan Chase, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, BNY Mellon, HSBC, Standard Chartered, and Wells Fargo — these banks act as correspondents for thousands of smaller banks worldwide.
