Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag SWIFT/BIC code

Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag SWIFT code: OMBSSESS

The code has a single purpose: it ensures that an international payment reaches the right bank. In daily life you usually see the code on international invoices, in your banking app and in the bank details that Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag provides.

We wrote this page to help people who receives money at an account at Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag. A SWIFT code identifies an institution, never a single account, which is why you always need the account number too.

Paying Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag in euros within SEPA

Within the SEPA zone, euro transfers to Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag follow common rules. A field for the BIC is often optional for those payments.

The BIC still come into play when the currency is not euros and when the money comes from outside SEPA. If a payment form has a field for the BIC regardless, adding OMBSSESS is fine.

How long does an international transfer to Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag take?

How quickly a payment reaches Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag depends on several factors: the currency, how many intermediary banks are involved, daily processing deadlines and time zones. Transfers sent late in the day or just before weekends and holidays often go out a business day later. Extra checks by one of the banks can also cause a delay, regardless of the details.

If the money is delayed, ask the sending bank for the status and the transaction reference. Money transfer services often show tracking in their app so you can see how far the payment has got.

A delayed transfer has to be traced by the sending bank, using the payment confirmation. As a recipient, it helps to check your account to see a slightly lower amount.

Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag: head office code versus branch codes

With 34 codes, Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag belongs to the banks that use individual codes for branches. The head office code remains OMBSSESSXXX.

Usually you do not need to look up a branch: payments sent to OMBSSESSXXX reach Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag correctly. A branch code only makes sense if the account holder explicitly asks for it, which is more common for business accounts and specialised services.

If you are not sure, ask the person you are paying for the exact BIC in their bank details. Branch codes are more prone to change than OMBSSESSXXX.

Is OMBSSESS still correct? How to check

Have the recipient copy the bank details straight from their banking app. If the code you have differs from OMBSSESS or OMBSSESSXXX, do not guess.

A wrong SWIFT code can cause delays, a returned payment or additional charges. Do not forget the IBAN: a mistake there is harder to undo than a wrong code.

A validity check in your banking app only tells you that the IBAN is valid – not that it belongs to the person you mean to pay. Some banks now compare the name against the account before you confirm – do not ignore a mismatch warning. A small test payment can be a sensible step for large sums, even if it costs an extra fee.

8 or 11 characters: OMBSSESS versus OMBSSESSXXX

Every SWIFT/BIC code has the same eight core characters: a four-letter bank code, two letters for the country and a two-character location code. Combined, those parts form OMBSSESS, the code most people search for.

XXX at the end of OMBSSESSXXX does not stand for a missing value or a mistake: it indicates the main office of Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag. Certain payment forms insist on 11 characters, in which case you simply enter XXX after OMBSSESS.

Enter the code as one block, in upper case and without separators, exactly as shown here. A wrong character may route a payment to another bank.

Getting paid from abroad into a Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag account

When you expect money from abroad, send the payer all details at once. That means: your full name exactly as it appears on the account, your IBAN or account number, the SWIFT/BIC code OMBSSESSXXX (or OMBSSESS) and usually your address.

Some sending banks also ask for the address of Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag, so keep it at hand. A mistake in your account number is harder to fix than you might think; copy them from your banking app rather than typing.

An incoming payment will not always arrive for the full amount. Intermediary banks may deduct a fee, and if the money is converted, an exchange rate margin applies. On invoices, it is common to agree how the fees are split, so that nobody is left short.

Scams that use SWIFT codes

Scammers regularly send payment requests with new bank details. A real SWIFT code says nothing about who owns the account: scammers use real codes of real banks.

Always verify a change of bank details by phone, using a number you already had. Be suspicious of urgent requests, odd spelling or an email address that differs by one letter. When money has already gone to the wrong account, call your bank right away: the sooner they act, the better the chance of a recall.

People receiving money can be targeted as well: a classic trick is an overpayment and then sends a request to refund the difference. A payment confirmation from the sender proves nothing – check your own account.

The Swedish Krona and what conversion costs you

Most accounts at Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag are usually held in SEK, the local currency. A payment in a foreign currency is converted into SEK on its way to Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag – and the bank that does it picks the rate. You rarely see a separate charge for the conversion – the cost sits in the rate.

Who converts the money matters: every bank has its own margin. Check what SEK the recipient gets with different providers.

The SEK rate fluctuates throughout the day. On larger amounts, a seemingly small gap in the rate adds up quickly.

Paying someone abroad from your Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag account

A bank transfer abroad can cost rather more than the listed fee. You pay the fee for the transfer itself, sometimes fees charged by intermediary banks in between and, most importantly, the exchange rate markup if the currency changes.

Many banks rarely show the margin on the rate as a cost, but you pay it all the same. Check the rate you are offered with the mid-market rate, the midpoint between buy and sell rates you see on financial sites.

For a lot of currency pairs, a transfer service is cheaper than a traditional bank transfer. Before your next transfer, it is worth to compare the total cost via GoldexPay instead of going straight to your bank. You can always use your account at Nasdaq Omx Broker Services Aktiebolag to fund the transfer.
