BBVA becomes the first Spanish bank to launch Swift's Global Retail Payments scheme, positioning itself as a leader in cross-border retail payment infrastructure in Europe.

Call your European bank partners this week to understand their Swift GRP roadmap before they've already chosen their tech stack.
