ACH Fraud Monitoring After Phase 2 What Community Financial Institutions Need to Operationalize Now
Read Time 3 mins | Written by: Starr Largin
Why Fraud Prevention Requires More Than Technology
Nacha’s Phase 2 ACH fraud-monitoring requirements are now in effect. The question for community banks is no longer simply whether a policy was updated. It is whether the team can show how a potentially suspicious ACH item moves from an initial signal to a reasoned, documented outcome.
Join Finovifi for a practical educational session on the operating processes behind risk-based ACH monitoring, including alert review, escalation, decision authority, documentation, and annual review.
What attendees will learn
- How risk-based ACH monitoring differs by role, including RDFI, ODFI, Originator, and Third-Party Sender responsibilities
- What a traceable monitoring process looks like from signal through investigation, decision, and documentation
- Where institutions commonly need clearer ownership, escalation paths, and after-hours coverage
- How to use account and transaction context to prioritize reviews without treating a signal as a conclusion
- What to examine during annual review and ahead of upcoming ACH changes
- How ACH RiskLens can support monitoring, investigation, review, escalation, and documented processes
