As I have said before, I am a new compliance officer. We have decieded to try to reduce the amount of postage and paper when sending out our monthly, quarterly statements. I know you need to have certian disclosures on the statement like error resolution for electronic transfers but what other disclosures need to be posted. Do you need to disclose how to calculate the interest? Any help would be appreciated!!

I forgot to mention that of course the FDIC and equal housing lender need to be on there but what else?

Why? As to the FDIC, they are already your depositor so that isn't a requirement. If you advertise other deposit products it may apply. If you advertise home loan products it may apply. But if it is just a statement, those are not required. But I don't see how that will change your postage.

You have to worry about an annual Reg. E disclosure or an abbreviated one that goes in each statement. Look at 205.8. You don't have to tell them how to compute interest. APYEs and other TISA items need to be disclosed. Look at 230.6.

If you have a line of credit attached to the statement, you'll need the Reg. Z billing error statement if you don't do it annually.

Hold on. You're doing statements every 3 months?
Does this mean that if someone forged checks against my account at the beginning of my statement cycle, yet didn't cause me to bounce checks, I'd not even know about them for up to 90 days, and not be required to file complaints for 120 days?
It seems like you're increasing liability for fraud, unless your institution has a membership that all checks their activity online.

Ok. I'm the idiot anonymous that just posted. I just re-read the original poster one extra time, and finally got his meaning. I retract my last post in its entirety.
