The central settlement authority handles the final leg of interbank payments. After verification, the flow of both the payment instructions and the funds moves to the entity that clears and settles between banks, which in this context is the Federal Reserve Bank. It processes the verified transfer and forwards the information and funds to the interbank clearing system (IBC) so the recipient’s bank can complete the credit to the customer’s account. The Transit Bank may verify and route messages, but it does not finalize settlement. The customer initiates the transaction, and IBC cannot be the one to forward to itself.
