Because 1) blockchain is far more secure than the older methods of xfer, 2) blockchain is faster than the current methods, and 3) blockchain is cheaper than the current methods.
I work with a few banks who are actively using this already and others who are developing the technology. Not sure where you get your information, but I can tell you first hand that banks and credit card company absolutely are using crypto right now.

Well. I stand at least somewhat corrected. The SWIFT usage seems experimental right now, but Kinexys is clearly in use in production.
