Short Summary
This legal document governs the medium and time of settlement by a bank. It applies to banks and persons involved in settlement transactions. The document states that the medium and time of settlement may be prescribed by Federal Reserve regulations, clearing-house rules, agreements, or other similar means. In the absence of such prescription, the medium of settlement is cash or credit to an account in a Federal Reserve bank or a specified bank. The time of settlement varies depending on the method of settlement, such as cash, credit, debit, or funds transfer. If the tender of settlement is not made through an authorized medium or the time of settlement is not fixed, no settlement occurs until the tender of settlement is accepted by the person receiving settlement. The document also provides specific rules for settlement by cashier’s check, teller’s check, and authority to charge an account. No penalties are mentioned in this document.
