Monitoring
Central 1 has been advised by Payments Canada that Scotiabank is experiencing internal system issues and missed sending AFT files to other financial institutions during the evening AFT exchange window. This means AFT items coming from Scotiabank to Central 1 that should have been in the CR040428/ON040428 and CR0104209/ON010429 files have not been included in the respective files.
The estimated time of their recovery is unknown at this time, and missed transactions will be sent in the first AFT exchange window following the resolution of their system issues.
In addition, Payments Canada has advised that this disruption has affected Scotiabank's ability to post transactions to customer accounts in accordance with the 2-hour funds availability.
