The hacker attack is also said to have affected the liquidity of the US Treasury bond market to some extent, but did not affect the functioning of the market as a whole. (archive image)

The attack caused some systems to fail. Ransomware refers to malicious programs that restrict or completely block access to data and systems. A ransom is usually required for release. ICBC Financial Services contained the incident by separating and isolating the affected systems. The systems operated independently of ICBC’s in China.

As the Financial Times reported, citing market participants, the attack meant that transactions to other market participants could not be carried out. The attack also affected the liquidity of the US government bond market to some extent, but did not affect the functionality of the market as a whole. (SDA)
