Update: We have observed that the traffic has mostly returned to normal though some EU banks are still experiencing slower than normal processing time. We are continuing to monitor the situation.
The root cause seems to be an EBA clearing delay affecting multiple banking partners. The scheme-wide incident is impacting the processing of SEPA Instant Payments.
The EBA has informed that the investigation is still ongoing on their side. As soon as we receive further updates, we will promptly share updates.
