Synchronisation engagement and next steps

Following our Call for Interest we published in August 2018, and the workshops held at the Bank earlier this year, we have now published two updates on our synchronisation work: 

• Synchronisation engagement and next steps (PDF) - this document summarises what we’ve heard through our engagement activities to-date, including on the use-cases for synchronisation and initial feedback on the Bank’s design proposals.
• Background guide to proposed RTGS functionality: Synchronisation (PDF) - this document sets out the Bank’s latest thinking on the topic.

• We are still very interested in hearing your thoughts on these proposals – get in touch via RTGSEngagement@bankofengland.co.uk.
