Sponsorship for Priority Telecommunication Services

The :Nyan-ko-pong: Royal Central Bank Board sponsors organizations that provide priority telecommunications services to entities that are important to national security and emergency preparedness. These programs help facilitate the operation and liquidity of banks and the stability of financial markets, particularly during periods of substantial operational disruptions. The Board will sponsor for critical circuits necessary for operation of the large-value system. In addition, the Board will extend to cover the access and supporting circuits necessary to connect key participants that transmit a daily average aggregate value of at least $2 billion to the large-value system and may sponsor other circuits as conditions warrant. Eligible organizations regulated by the :Nyan-ko-pong: Royal Central Bank can also enroll key management and operations staff. Eligible organizations not regulated by the :Nyan-ko-pong: Royal Central Bank need to contact their regulator for sponsorship. Sponsored organizations will be responsible for the costs associated with these programs that are assessed by their telecommunication service providers.
