given in the session.

 Business Etiquette

Time will remain for any of your questions to be answered.

 Implementing an Identity Theft Prevention Program
The banking regulators have jointly issued final Red Flag regulations implementing Section 114 and 315 of the Fair and Accurate
Credit Transactions (FACT) Act. These regulations require all depository institutions to have an Identity Theft Prevention Program, require users of consumer reports from the major consumer reporting agencies to be able to respond to notices regarding address discrepancies, and require credit and debit card issuers to meet certain requirements regarding changes of address. The Program must include reasonable policies and procedures for detecting, preventing, and mitigating identity theft and enable a financial institution to: Identify relevant patterns, practices, and specific forms of activity that are “red flags” signaling possible identity theft and incorporate those red flags into the Program; Detect red flags that have been incorporated into the Program; Respond appropriately to any red flags that
are detected to prevent and mitigate identity theft; and Ensure the Program is updated periodically to reflect changes in risks from identity theft.

The compliance date is Nov. 1, 2008 but it will be necessary to act much earlier in 2008 to have the Program ready by that time. Learn from Heather Czermak, Senior Product Manager with WKFS, what is required and what tools are available to help you before the Red Flags start flying in earnest.

 Documenting IRAs
Join Jeff Hippler, Senior Trainer – Implementation Consultant for WKFS, who will provide an orientation to the new IRA documents

A demonstration on generating the documents with Financial Link version 20, including service documents (contribution worksheets, distribution forms, etc.) will be provided.
