Securing daily payments

Preparedness.

The authorities have created backup arrangements to secure daily payments in the event that serious disruptions of society or emergency conditions would prevent the use of normal payment systems. 

If a bank were to suffer a serious long-term disruption in its operations, its customers’ account and card services could be handled in a backup account system. In addition, these measures include securing payment traffic between banks.
