Hold the payment — then let FIU staff open the message

Authorised push-payment scams and coercion transfers succeed because settlement is faster than review. Nexus scores the item and can delay it in a zero-trust hold queue.

What the time-lock is

An adaptive delay on the settlement path: velocity limits, behavioural risk (0–100), and a hold state the governor dashboard counts as high-risk funds still in the bank’s control. It is not a marketing “AI block” with no operator workflow.

UK and MEA spelling

Procurement searches use both authorised and authorized push payment. This page is the canonical brief for both. Related stills: Figure 3 adaptive delay.
