Overview of the webinar

This newly approved change to the NACHA Operating Rules, enables the creation of a valuable resource (created by NACHA) with adding the requirement for all financial institutions (who participate in the ACH network) to register “contact information” with NACHA.

This contact information, when entered on the NACHA website, will be available for all other registered ACH financial institutions, ACH Operators, NACHA, and Payments Associations, for ACH operational, fraud, and risk management issues in the Network (examples are: proof of authorizations, duplicates, erroneous payments, ACH-related system outages, fraudulent payments and reversals, plus other issues). The “contact details” entered will be for use only by the parties who register, for their own, internal use and limited to ACH purposes, as mentioned.

Recently, NACHA approved an amendment to the Rules by adding a NEW ACH Registry, effective July 2020. With this newly approved amendment, comes additional requirements for the ODFI and new responsibilities for the RDFI. This new resource, called the ACH Contact Registry - is being created by NACHA for financial institutions to be able to connect more effectively with other financial institutions regarding ACH issues with operations, exception processing and risk management issues. This session will cover all the details!  

Who should attend?

  • Financial Institution Professionals (New/Current Operations Staff)
  • Banking Operations Managers and Staff
  • Compliance and Risk Professionals
  • Treasury Management Professionals
  • Aspiring and Current AAPs (Accredited ACH Professionals)
  • Banking Managers/ Supervisors
  • Audit and Compliance Personnel / Risk Managers

Why should you attend?

With this newly approved amendment, beginning July 2020, all ACH participants (ODFIs and RDFIs) will be required to register their contact information. This means additional requirements for the ODFI each year and an addition to the ACH annual Audit requirements. For the RDFI, this will mean a NEW responsibility to “register” contact details with NACHA.  All “contact details” will have to be registered by Oct 30, 2020 via the Risk Management Portal through NACHA.

In addition to the initial requirements with this new Rule, there will be ongoing responsibilities to keep the information up-to-date.

By attending this session, you will learn all the details about entering the contact information, what this means to each participant, the impacts and ongoing details to remain compliant with this newly approved amendment.
