ACH Risk Management: How Effective is Your Risk Program
Virginia Bankers Association Operations and Technology Workshop
Richmond, Virginia
May 18 - 19, 2010
Speaker: Terri Pelle Sands, AAP and Kathy Barry Levin, AAP
The ACH delivery system has evolved from direct deposit, direct payment

These newer ways to send payments electronically have led to increased
volume in the network, which in turn has prompted additional guidance
from regulatory bodies and a greater focus on how financial institutions
are identifying, managing, and overseeing the ACH risk on an ongoing
basis. In addition, effective June 18, 2010, the National Automated
Clearing House Association (NACHA) will require all financial
institutions to perform a risk assessment of its ACH program. This
session will focus on the different types of risks associated with ACH,
the expectations and requirements of risk management from regulatory,

ACH Risk Management
BAI Webinar
September 8, 2010
Speaker: Terri Pelle Sands, AAP and Kathy Barry Levin, AAP
The ACH Network is growing at a rapid pace, and what has traditionally
been a low risk network now has new nonrecurring payment types,
additional participants/relationships, and increased risk for industry
participants. This has caused regulatory agencies to focus more on ACH
risk, and increased their requirements for how financial institutions
are monitoring and managing it.
It is important for the ODFI, RDFI and Originator to all fully
understand their unique risks in ACH participation in order to help
protect their organizations from losses. Certain types of risk can
increase during poor economic times, as both companies and individuals
struggle. Once the inherent risks are understood, policies and
procedures can be put into place to track, manage, and mitigate those
risks.
In this webinar, the speakers will:
-
Review the types of ACH risk,
including operational, financial and fraud, that exist for each
participant
-
Discuss potentially higher-risk ACH
transactions, third party relationships, and how to manage the
increased risk associated with both
-
Help you to understand existing
regulatory guidance that has been issued on ACH risk management and
what it means to your organization.
