  1. Check Image Collaborative Communications Work Group • Key Messages: • Paper checks are being transitioned to electronic images of checks at a pace that is unprecedented. Check images are currently collected in two forms, as substitute checks and as check images. • Substitute checks assist in evolving traditional paper check clearing to image-based clearing. As a precursor to full check image exchange, the number of substitute checks is a positive indication of the acceptance of image exchange. • Just 30 months after the effective date of Check 21, more than 8 billion check payments totaling $11.5 trillion per year have already moved from the traditional paper-based clearing process to improved image-based processes. Based on the 2004 Federal Reserve Payments Study, that amount is five times greater than the sum of all debit card payments ($.6 trillion) and all credit card payments ($1.7 trillion). • On an average day during April 2007, more than 6,100 institutions received 21.2 million check images for posting. These total 5.4 billion checks per year. • This Check Image Collaborative industry image clearing data reflects transactions settled through the Federal Reserve, NCHA and SVPCO. When the same payments were cleared through two or more of these organizations, those payments were counted only once.

  2. Highlights: Chart reflects volume received by DFIs for payment from other DFIs or an intermediary. Volume grew by 118% in 6 months – October ‘06 (9.75) to April ’07 (21.2). Average daily image volume grew from 2.2 to 21.2 million or by 864% from April 2006 to April 2007. April volume annualized is 5.4 billion images received per year.

Across the 13 month period Image-based clearing volume grew from 134.1 to 677.5 million / mo or by 405% with 66% of the volume cleared by image in April 2007. The annualized April ‘07 volume (8.1 billion items/yr.) is approximately 23% of total check volume cleared. # of Images & Substitute Checks Forward Collection Only 600 500 400 # Items in Millions 300 200 100 Data Sources: Transactions settled through the Federal Reserve, NCHA and SVPCO with no duplicate counting 0 Jul-06 Jan-07 Apr-07 Apr-06 Oct-06 Jun-06 Feb-07 Mar-07 May-06 Aug-06 Nov-06 Sep-06 Dec-06
