    It is estimated that the banks make £35 million a year in interest from the delay caused by the 3-day BACS clearing cycle (see The Clearing Cycle).

    It would be rather naïve to assume that, once the transfer times have been reduced to one day, the banks are not going to recoup the lost revenue one way or another.

    For a discussion of the BACS transfer system and further comments on the changes, see also BACS transfers.
