Data breach and card reissuing

11/17/2024

We have been notified by Mastercard of a data breach and need to inform our customers who were impacted by this incident. In previous financial institutions where I have worked, we typically send a letter to notify customers about the card compromise. This letter includes the date we will be closing their card and informs them that a new card will be issued. My question is regarding the regulations surrounding this process: Can customers choose to keep their card active? If so, where does the liability lie if they experience fraud in the future? I am looking for a regulation or a Mastercard rule to implement a formal policy, as there isn't one currently in place at my current financial institution.
