Payments are NOT Just a Back Office Function
Anymore
NACHA Payments 2009
Orlando, Florida
April 5 - 8, 2009
Speaker: Terri Pelle Sands, AAP
http://payments.nacha.org/
With the launch of such corporate product offerings as remote deposit
capture, payroll cards, ATM capture, and mobile banking, back office
functions have taken a front seat and are opening up a host of
opportunities for new and existing deposits. Financial institutions are
better able to cement client relationships, reduce expenses and open the
door for new deposit revenue. Financial institutions large and small
have the same opportunities to offer these products. Speakers in this
session offer a large bank view and community bank perspective of the
driving forces behind these opportunities, regulatory preparedness,
changes to staff responsibilities and how banks large and small are
strategically planning for the future of the payments collection system.

Speaker: Kathy Barry Levin, AAP

As financial institutions offer the Remote Deposit Capture (RDC) service

those financial institutions to properly evaluate the potential users of
this service. Presenters in this session discuss the importance of
establishing formal underwriting criteria and approval policies, setting
limits and other controls, and creating procedures to monitor and review
both the customer's activity and any changes to the information used in
the original approval process. In this candid examination of best
practices, you will hear some of the real-life lessons learned by
community banks as well as case studies from two financial institutions
that have successful programs in place.

Deposit Capture Service
NACHA Payments 2009
Orlando, Florida
April 5 - 8, 2009
Speaker: Terri Pelle Sands, AAP
http://payments.nacha.org/
When a financial institution offers RDC services, what steps should be
taken in advance, and what measures should be taken on an ongoing basis,
to ensure that the bank's RDC business complies with applicable laws and
regulations, payment network rules and agreements, regulatory guidance
and expectations, and sound principles of banking and risk management?
RDC risk management includes some front-end work and some ongoing
monitoring across many areas within the institution. In this session you
will hear a payments lawyer and a hands-on consultant and external
auditor discuss these risks and how to manage them using a combination
of legal and business tools. Session attendees learn how to use their
bank's RDC agreement to identify and manage risks, what bank examiners
will look for when they review a bank's RDC service, and real world
lessons based on actual RDC operational reviews and external audits.
