Regulation E has ranked third in the number of cited violations and enforcement actions during the last couple of years, behind Regulation Z and Regulation DD. In this session we will review instances where institutions have failed to comply with Reg E or misapplied the regulation and provide you with best practices and tools to avoid a similar fate.
According to a recent survey, annual ACH and debit card usage increased by 6% and 10% respectively. Consumers appreciate the convenience of conducting transactions electronically. This increased ease of access also exposes them and us as their financial institution to elevated exposure to account compromise and card fraud.
Among its provisions, Regulation E limits consumer liability for unauthorized transfers, and promulgates procedures for the resolution of errors alleged by consumers, including unauthorized and fraudulent ACH and card transactions. In this session we will review the specific error resolution requirements of Reg E, discuss procedural best practices and provide tips on documenting your investigation. In addition, we will detail how to review your error resolution process, including how your audit procedures can help mitigate risk for both the accountholder and your institution.
