Turkish Banks already have a system that transfers money (with almost no limit) between accounts from same bank. Also you could transfer up to $150-200K worth money in national currency to any other national bank with little to none fee during business hours. Now they have upgraded the infrastructure and allows instant transfers between accounts from different banks 24/7.

While that technology exists and already field tested, I doubt that the central banks would want to have a CBDC to provide that functionality.
