In this paper, we study how the impact of a cyber-attack that paralyzes one or multiple banks' ability to send payments … would transmit to other banks through the Canadian wholesale payments system. Based on historical payment data, we simulate … and number of banks under attack, the time of the attack and the design of the payments system, the attack can quickly …

Similarly, we develop a method to assess the current and … value of ACSS and LVTS payments might find its way to RTR due to changing end-user behaviour. Our analysis also suggests …
