COLLECTION OF ITEMS: DEPOSITARY AND COLLECTING BANKS > Medium and time of settlement by bank
Short Summary
This legal document governs the medium and time of settlement by a bank. It states that the medium and time of settlement may be prescribed by Federal Reserve regulations, clearing-house rules, agreements, or similar provisions. In the absence of such prescription, the medium of settlement is cash or credit to an account in a Federal Reserve bank or as specified by the person receiving settlement. The time of settlement varies depending on the method of tender, such as cash, check, credit, debit, or funds transfer. If the tender of settlement is not authorized or the time of settlement is not fixed, no settlement occurs until the tender is accepted by the person receiving settlement. The document also specifies the finality of settlement when made by cashier’s check, teller’s check, or authority to charge an account. No penalties or exemptions are mentioned in this document.
