iso_9362

This library provides ISO 9362 Business Identifier Code (BIC) structure parsing and normalization based on the public Swift and ISO 9362 documentation. It requires Unicode support from the backend Prolog compiler.

The current public implementation focuses on the normative structure that Swift and ISO 9362 publish openly: a BIC consists of a 4-character business party prefix, a 2-character ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code, a 2-character business party suffix, and an optional 3-character branch identifier. Eight-character primary-office BICs are normalized to the branch code XXX.

This library does not currently ship the full ISO 9362 directory as facts. The public SwiftRef TXT directory download is available only through a secure, time-limited email link, so it is not treated as an automatable checked-in source snapshot in the same way as the ISO 4217 and ISO 639 libraries.
