The new version of Bank Account Validator updates the bank data for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. CSV processing for Austria has been revised; for Switzerland, the library now uses the current CSV V3 format from SIX and accounts for successor institutions. Corrections to character encoding also ensure that bank names containing umlauts are imported correctly.
As usual, the latest version can be found on Maven Central:
<dependency>
<groupId>de.schegge</groupId>
<artifactId>bank-account-validator</artifactId>
<version>0.9.0</version>

A new OpenCode skill simplifies future data updates: It checks official sources, compares data structures and content, and prepares verified changes—along with tests—as a merge request. This reduces the manual effort required for upcoming releases.
Outlook: In the future, updates will be provided on a quarterly basis, provided that at least two of the three data sources provide new figures.
