The RIX system is functioning using contingency routines

The Riksbank's payment system (RIX) is continuing to encounter operational disruptions. To make it possible for the participants in the RIX system* to complete the day's payments, the Riksbank has decided to transfer to contingency routines. This will allow all payments made in the system during the day to be implemented. However, the transfer to contingency routines may entail certain delays in payments between the banks, which may also have consequences for the banks' customers.

Operational disruptions in the RIX system are very rare. In parallel with the transfer to contingency routines, the Riksbank is working on remedying the fault, which has been given high priority. The Riksbank is cooperating with the commercial banks and other interested parties in order to ensure a return to normal routines as quickly as possible.
