You can search the growing knowledge base by typing your question or other key words.
Recent Exams • Does anyone currently have examiners on-site? • Is there still a continuing increase in request information? • What is the focus of the on-site? • Has anyone just been through an exam or recently received their ROE? • Has examiner “tone” changed from the last on-site? • Are the reports giving credit where credit is due, or if there were concerns, are the reports written in such a way that the regulators are seemingly sympathetic or more demanding? • What are some of the areas of focus?
Reg. CC Changes • The final amendments update Regulation CC to reflect the evolution of the nation's check collection system from one that is largely paper-based to one that is virtually all electronic. The amendments create a framework for electronic check collection and return and create new warranties for electronic checks, which will result in a consistent warranty chain regardless of the check's form. • As with existing rules for paper checks, the parties may, by mutual agreement, vary the effect of the amendments' provisions as they apply to electronic checks and electronic returned checks. The final amendments also modify the expeditious-return and notice of nonpayment requirements to create incentives for electronic presentment and return. The amendments become effective July 1, 2018.
Beneficial Ownership • What’s on your mind?
Anything else on your mind? • Follow-up – Large bank huddles every other month or every month? • Majority say every month – should we shorten the time?
