The United States Federal Reserve wire systems went down completely Wednesday, making it impossible for banks and other financial institutions to transfer money.
The issue was resolved a little more than an hour after the outage occurred.
The fed claimed the disruption was due to an ‘operational error.’
‘Our technical teams have determined that the cause is a Federal Reserve operational error. We will provide updates via service status as more information becomes available,’ the Fed said in a brief statement. Later adding, the Fed “will communicate remediation efforts to our customers when available.”
