[Webinar] Breaking the Ice: National Automated Clearinghouse Association Rule Changes and Fraud Prevention

New Rules Are Here - Is Your Pension System Ready?

Recent National Automated Clearinghouse Association rule changes have established foundational risk management requirements designed to prevent fund transfer fraud. But here's what many pension systems may not realize: these obligations begin with the originator of Automated Clearinghouse entries, not the custodial bank.

Join Ice Miller attorneys Audra Ferguson and Nicole Giambarrese as they welcome Sid Bose and Jim Watson back to examine how these requirements may apply to pension systems, with particular emphasis on the expectation that organizations implement and maintain fraud prevention and validation processes for ACH activity. The discussion also will include practical pointers on fraud detection, internal controls, and money management practices that can help plans mitigate risk and respond effectively to evolving payment system standards.

What You'll Learn:

• Overview of new NACHA rule changes affecting ACH transactions
• What is required for fraud prevention responsibilities for ACH originators
• Impacts on pension and governmental retirement systems
• Practical fraud detection, internal controls, and risk mitigation strategies you can implement now

Who Should Attend:
