At Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, access to Internet banking services for corporations has been concentrated and failures have occurred, making it difficult to connect.

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation is investigating the detailed cause and rushing to restore it.

According to Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, the problem is the Internet banking service for corporations called "Web21", and access has been concentrated since around 10:00 am on the 28th, making it difficult to connect.



It is a service that allows you to transfer funds to business partners and employee salaries all at once through the Internet, and the transfer fee is cheaper than bank counters and ATMs (automatic teller machines).



The bank is investigating the detailed cause of the failure and is rushing to restore it.



In addition, we are calling on customers who are planning urgent transactions such as transfers on the 28th to consider transactions with other banks.



"We deeply apologize for causing great inconvenience and concern to our customers and everyone else," said Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation.
