NEW Rules for Large Originators/TPS and TPSP - Discover the Impacts and Compliance Requirements

Why Should You Attend:

With the change to the NACHA Operating Rules and the addition of additional security framework requirements, you need to be up-to-date on what is expected for the larger Originators and Third Party Service Providers [TPSP] (including Third-Party Senders [TPS]).

As a financial institution, you have Originators, do you know what their ACH volume is in 2019 and/or 2020? This new Rule requires changes to existing security framework for the larger Originator and TPSP/TPS.

This is being implemented over a 2-phase approach, one being effective in June 2020 and the second in June 2021 based on ACH transaction volume.

In addition, Originators and TPSPs covered by the rule would be required to attest compliance to their ODFI (or other counterparty with whom they have their agreement to originate or transmit ACH entries).

Areas Covered in the Webinar:

• Details on the recently approved amendment affecting the larger Originators and TPSP/TPS
• Identify ACH volume guidelines for determining whether Originators, TPSP/TPS need to be compliant in phase 1 or phase 2
• Define the timeline for Phase 1 and 2 for the implementation of the enhanced ACH security framework

Topic Background:

Recently approved NACHA Rule Amendments will require large non-financial Originators and Third Party Service Providers (including Third-Party Senders) by adding to the existing account information security requirements when sending ACH Entries.

In the NACHA Operating Rules, there is an existing ACH Security Framework (effective in 2013), but with the ongoing concern in the industry at-large about the risk of data breaches and the potential use of such data, there needed to be some changes.

The original proposal intent was to expand the existing ACH Security Framework rules to explicitly require large, non-FI Originators, Third-Party Service Providers (TPSPs) and Third-Party Senders (TPSs) to protect deposit account information by rendering it unreadable when it is stored electronically.
