Discovering Regulation E: The Basics & Error Resolution

Recorded Session
90 Minutes

Regulation E sets the rules for electronic payments posting to consumer accounts, including what happens when a transaction is unauthorized. This 90-minute Regulation E basics and error resolution training starts with key definitions such as consumer account and access device.

You'll learn the limits of liability for consumers and the financial institution, including the maximum amounts when a debit card is lost or stolen, using real-life scenarios.

The session then walks through the error resolution process: the consumer's notice, the time allowed for research, when provisional credit is due, what to do if no error is found, the notice to the consumer, and overdraft protection when provisional credit is reversed.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Financial institutions carry responsibilities and liabilities under Regulation E whenever unauthorized transactions hit consumer accounts. This session gives you the basics and lets you apply the error resolution timeframes and steps to real-life scenarios with the trainer.

It suits bank operations staff, new payments employees, bank managers and payment professionals, CEOs and CFOs, risk, compliance and audit staff, and AAPs seeking continuing education.
