What specific changes did the February 2026 updated CPMI harmonised ISO 20022 data requirements make compared to the October 2023 original, including regulatory developments incorporated, clarifications provided, and how the separate technical annex relates to the main document?
The model fabricated a specific commitment, November 2026 cutover, structured-and-hybrid-addresses-only, and attributed it to the CPMI document. The actual CPMI text describes only generalised standardisation and regulatory developments since 2023, with a separate technical annex containing the data model. The structured-address content appears drawn from SWIFT/CBPR+ community material that the model has cross-attributed to CPMI without distinguishing the source corpus.
The model returned a specific cutover commitment — 'from November 2026 onwards, only structured and hybrid addresses will be permitted in ISO 20022 cross-border payment messages' — attributing the commitment to the CPMI document. The regulator's own text describes only generalised 'standardisation and regulatory developments since 2023' and a separate technical annex; the specific date-and-format commitment is not present there. The fabrication appears to draw from SWIFT/CBPR+ community discussion material, which has circulated dates and structured-address mandates, and the model has cross-attributed that content to CPMI without distinguishing the source.
For an AI lab, this is a source-attribution eval candidate: when the model returns a specific commitment with a specific date, the regulator-source attribution should be verifiable against the cited document, and where it is not, the model should distinguish industry-community material from regulator-published material in its response.
Address quality and travel-rule data fields are central to PI AML and sanctions screening on cross-border rails. Sonnet 4.6 commits to a November 2026 structured-address-only cutover for ISO 20022 cross-border payment messages, framed as a d230 commitment. The d230 source describes only generalised standardisation developments and a separate technical annex. A PI compliance team that reads the AI line into its travel-rule readiness paper, sanctions-screening recalibration memo or correspondent-network message-format SLA is preparing against a regulatory deadline that does not exist.
Each finding has a stable Citation ID (RLB-F-… for aggregated case-study findings, RLB-H-… for raw per-model hallucinations) — like a DOI, the ID always resolves to the canonical finding even if URLs change.

Every finding on this page compares an AI subject's account of the rule against the regulator's verbatim text from the regulator's own portal. Both are linked. Each delta, its root causes, and impact analysis are documented and published with immutable Citation IDs.
