  15. Mandate management - SDD vs DOM80 New!! Creditor Mandate management Debtor Debtor Creditor 1) Mandate 2) Prenotification (bill) B2B!! 6) New!! Informs 5) Debit 1) Mandate 4) Clearing & settlement mechanism 4) collection 1b) mandateconfirmation 3) XML collection file + MRI Debtor bank Debtor bankMandate management Debtor bank Creditor bank Creditor bank 6) Credit 6)

  16. Mandate management - Migration from DOM80 to SDD • Possible to keep existing mandates on transition from DOM80 to SDD Core • Existing mandates are kept at the debtor’s bank • Once the mandate has been migrated, it is impossible to return to DOM80 • A creditor can use DOM80 and SDD Core alongside each other (but not for the same mandate) • New mandates are required on transition to SDD B2B

  17. Mandate management - The mandate The mandate reference must be allocated by the creditor and is limited to 35 positions. It is advisable to keep the reference short and simple. This will make it easier for debtors to confirm mandates.

  18. Mandate management - Creditor ID • New SDD creditor: • Creditor receives Creditor ID from the bank (in the form of a certificate): • Positions 3 and 4: Check digit (does not apply on ‘Business Code’) • Positions 8 to 35 (max.): Country-specific ID • either identical to the creditor's Belgian business number (10 positions) • or ‘bank code’ + ‘D’ + a bank counter (max. 24 positions)

  19. Mandate management - Changes SDD rulebook says for changes in: • Unique Mandate Reference • creditor identification • creditor name • debtor’s account number • to another number within the same bank • to another number with another bank The creditor must report the amendments to the Creditor bank as part of the next collection (as a “mandate amendment”). Additional attention point: in case 4.B, the creditor must send the next collection as a “FIRST”. • The paper mandate must be updated as well. Necessary to counter refund requests! • B2B? a new confirmation is needed for all amendments except n°3 (Febelfin Consensus) • Creditor to evaluate if new mandate might not be more opportune instead of working with a mandate amendment

  20. SDD in detail - Prenotification The creditor needs to notify the debtor of an upcoming collection • Initiative of the European Payments Council, supported by the EC and the ECBNo earlier than 1 year and no later than 14 days before the execution date • based on an invoice or similar document Possible deviations: • Agree a shorter period than 14 days with the debtor • in a separate agreement between the debtor and creditor • using a clause in the mandate (clearly separated from the compulsory parts) • a single payment plan instead of individual invoices for recurring payments

  21. SDD in detail - Timeline D-5 one off/first D-2 Recurrent D-14 Pre-notification D Due date = settlement D+8w refund D+13m refund unauthorized D+5 return SDD Core D+13m refund unauthorized D Due date = settlement D+2 return D-1 D-14 Pre-notification SDD B2B D-5 Pre-notification D-1 D Pivot date = due date D+1 Settlement/unpaid D+8w refund D+13m refund unauthorized DOM80 21

  22. SDD in detail - R transactions 1 . SDD Sequence type sent Type of R - trx Next collection with same by the Creditor mandate based on R - Before Due Date: Pacs.002 Reject transaction received or Request for Cancellation (RFC) Camt.056 After Due Date: Pacs.004 Return/Refund First Reject/RFC First First Return/Refund Recurrent Recurrent Reject/RFC/Return/Refund Recurrent Last Reject/RFC Last Last Return/Refund Mandate expired. One OFF Reject/RFC One - OFF One OFF Return/Refund Mandate expired

  23. SDD in detail - R transactions • The refund right is unconditional The debtor requests the refund without having to give a reason and the debtor's bank immediately reimburses the debtor without any loss to the debtor. • The creditor will • be debited for the original amount + a refund compensation fee • see the result in his statements / CODA reporting incl. the original reference

  24. Starting with SDD 4 possible scenarios: • Migration from DOM80 to SDD (Core) • Transition from DOM80 to SDD B2B • Starting with SDD Core • Starting with SDD B2B

  25. Starting with SDD - Migration from DOM80 to SDD Core • Sign creditor contract • Manage mandates • Avoid creation of new DOM80 mandates if needed • Overview of existing DOM80 mandates (incl. IBAN/BIC) from NBB via your bank • assign unique mandate references • Send collections • Send prenotification (invoice) • Send collection file to the bank (mandate lifecycle!) • Follow up on collections • Once the collection has been booked, the mandate has been irrevocably migrated. • Cancellation of the DOM80 creditor number

  26. Starting with SDD - Transition from DOM80 to SDD B2B Impossible to migrate; new mandates are required! • Reachability check http://epc.cbnet.info/content/adherence_database • Sign creditor contract • Manage mandates • avoid creation of new DOM80 mandates if needed • create new mandates • + inform debtor about the need to confirm the mandate • Send collections • send prenotification (invoice) • send collection file to the bank (mandate lifecycle!) • Follow up on collections • Cancellation of the DOM80 creditor number

  27. Sign creditor contract Manage mandates create new mandates Send collections send prenotification (invoice) send collection files to the bank (mandate lifecycle!) Follow up on collections Starting with SDD - SDD core

  28. Reachability check http://epc.cbnet.info/content/adherence_database Sign creditor contract Manage mandates create new mandates inform debtor about the need to confirm the mandate Send collections send prenotification (invoice) send collection files to the bank (mandate lifecycle!) Follow up on collections Starting with SDD - SDD B2B

  29. The SDD migration project Start now ! Do not underestimate required time & efforts Inventory Implementation Planning Preparation Testing Business as usual Procedures SDD contract Inform debtors Tools Migration plan Involved parties Manage mandates Send collections Collection files Communicationplan Databases Collectionset up Follow up Reporting Training plan IT architecture Adaptprocedures

  30. Communication

  31. Communication: Regulation,considérant 15 • "Il est indispensable que tous les acteurs, notamment les citoyens de l'Union, soient informés de façon appropriée et dans un délai raisonnable, de manière à être pleinement préparés aux changements que le SEPA apportera. Par conséquent, les principales parties prenantes, telles que les prestataires de services de paiement, les administrations publiques et les banques centrales nationales, ainsi que les personnes effectuant régulièrement des paiements devraient mener de larges campagnes d'information spécialisées, proportionnelles aux besoins et adaptées à leur public si nécessaire, afin de sensibiliser le public et de préparer les citoyens à la migration vers le SEPA. Il y a lieu notamment de familiariser les citoyens à la migration du code BBAN au code IBAN. Les comités de coordination nationaux sont les mieux placés pour coordonner ces campagnes d'information."
