Routing Numbers- A brief Detail

Routing Numbers are an essential part of monetary transactions which is used to identify and differentiate each banking institution from another. A routing number, also referred to as RTN or ABA routing number, is asked from you whenever you make a transaction online or through the phone.  The ABA routing number was designed originally to help the sorting, bundling and shipment of paper cheques back to the check-writer’s account. With the arrival of new payment methods like ACH and Wire, the system was extended to incorporate these methods too.

The Routing Transit Number is important for the Federal Reserve Banks when processing Fedwire funds transfer and for the Automated Clearing House to process direct deposits, bill payments, and other such automated transfers.

The People behind Routing Numbers

A financial institution can be assigned up to five routing numbers as directed by the Routing Number Policy. But due to a lot of mergers between several financial institutions, they have more than five routing numbers. Currently, there are around 26,895 active RTNs in use across the country.

To make any kind of international transactions, the use of SWIFT code is needed. This system was advised by the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT). All the European financial institutions use an IBAN code for their transactions. The IBN code was initially developed for helping the transactions in the European Union only, but the system proved to be versatile enough to be used globally.
