The issuing bank sent an MT799 acceptance message to the nominated bank undertaking to remit the proceeds on 8 November i.e., the maturity date. On 8 November, the issuing bank's trade finance department sent an MT202 through their correspondent bank for further credit to the nominated bank as per their instructions. However, the SWIFT unit processed the message at 7.30pm and the correspondent bank could not process the transactions due to their cut-off time and the nominated bank received the amount on 11 November (9 and 10 were a holiday). Now, the nominated bank is claiming delay payment interest for 2 days. Is the issuing bank liable to reimburse the interest?
