ODFI Risk Management in a Third-Party Sender World
Webinar
This workshop delivers a comprehensive overview of ODFI risk management for Third Party Sender (TPS) relationships, emphasizing regulatory requirements, due diligence, and practical controls to mitigate ACH network risks. Participants will gain skills to identify TPS relationships, interpret the latest Nacha Operating Rules—including recent amendments on TPS roles and responsibilities—and implement robust risk management programs covering exposure limits, ongoing monitoring, and auditing obligations.
Key topics include:
- Distinguishing TPS from other third-party service providers and understanding their unique risk profiles.
- Due diligence and registration requirements for ODFIs, including identification and reporting of TPS customers as mandated by Nacha rules.
- Lifecycle risk management: best practices for onboarding, monitoring, and exiting TPS relationships, with a focus on enterprise-wide frameworks and clear accountability.
- Risk assessment methodologies tailored to TPS arrangements, including exposure measurement, compliance monitoring, and incident management.
- Recent Nacha rule amendments: what’s changed, how to comply, and the implications for ODFIs and their TPS partners.
This session is essential for financial institution professionals in ACH operations, compliance, and risk management, equipping them with actionable tools and current knowledge to safeguard their organizations and maintain ACH network integrity.
