Not true. Its in use for all asset classes (FX, stocks, bonds, equities, 
commodities, municipals, corporate's, etc).

ISO 8583 is for ATM machines and credit card point of sales.

To cover all existing needs its pretty much ISO 20022, ISO 8583, FpML,

I expect we will need a last minute conversion/adapter from a browser 
friendly format to the format required by the account provider.

I have been in contact with https://www.c24.biz/ to provide a conversion 
tool for us.

Do you realistically think we should push all financial institutions to 
change their formats, again, just because we want them too? That would 
cause a major issue and lack of credibility.

Dont expect a financial institution to ingest JSON with external link 
references and have them fetch and aggregate the message and external 
references into their required format. They arent going to do it.

Browsers are far more versatile than the old Fortran code of the 
financial institutions.
