The ISO 20022 Registration Management Group (RMG) is made of senior industry experts nominated by ISO TC68 P-member countries and category A liaison organisations. The RMG is the highest UNIFI registration body: it monitors the overall registration process and reports directly to ISO TC68.

The RMG defines the scope of necessary SEGs, approves business justifications for new messages or updates to existing messages, and allocates them to one or more SEGs. The RMG also acts as a ‘court of appeal’ in case of conflicts between the RA, the TSG, the SEGs and the organisations that want to develop UNIFI messages (submitting organisations).

The RMG was created in 2004 and had its first meeting in the week of the 16 January 2005. It has 27 delegations from the following TC68 P-member countries and category A liaison organisations: Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, US, Clearstream, Euroclear, FIX Protocol Ltd, ISDA/FpML, ISITC, SWIFT, TWIST, UN/CEFACT TBG5, VISA International.

The RMG convenor is Gerard Hartsink (NL) and the vice convenor is Robert Blair (US).
