Check Review Threshold - What Is the Standard?

01/07/2002

We are facing a potential loss because of a bookkeeper stealing checks from their employer and forging our customer's signature. Our customer's attorney alleges that we were at fault for not spotting the signature variations on checks over $2,500 (the bank's policy) that were reviewed by us. The alleged fraud dates back to March 2000. My question is: Is there a standard threshold amount that most banks use when reviewing incoming/inclearing on-us checks? Is $2500 a reasonable threshold? What process is used to determine that a signature is irregular? Is the customer contacted? Does the branch get involved?
