The Isle of Man Financial Services Authority, the island’s regulator for banking, insurance and other financial services, said on 13 November that a worldwide Microsoft outage was disrupting its technical systems and communications.

In a notice on its website, the Authority said email in both directions was temporarily affected, as were some of its Microsoft 365 services. It said it was keeping a close watch on developments as Microsoft worked to restore its systems around the world.

The Authority apologised to anyone inconvenienced and thanked them for their patience.

People with urgent business should phone the Authority’s main switchboard on +44 (0) 1624 646000, it said.
