  • How the Federal Reserve's Automated Clearing House Informs
    Insight How The Federal Reserve’s Automated Clearing House Informs The Fed’s Proposed Real- Time Payments Entry THOMAS WADE | JULY 11, 2019 Executive Summary Since the 1970s the Federal Reserve has acted both as regulator and market participant in the provision of automated clearing house services. Twenty years of decreasing prices that are not matched by identified cost-savings suggest that the Federal Reserve is using its platform for non-market policy purposes that serve to undercut private providers and benefit the largest banks. These lessons and potential conflict of interest concerns must be considered as the Federal Reserve considers also entering the real-time payments space. Background The Federal Reserve (the Fed) is considering providing real-time payment services, but this move would not be the first time that the Fed has entered a market as both a regulator and participant. In the early 1970s, the Fed began providing an automated clearing house (ACH) service. An ACH is an electronic network for financial transactions that acts as a computer-based clearing house and settlement service, processing electronic payments made by financial institutions. It is this network that underpins electronic banking as we understand it today. Administered since 1985 by NACHA (previously the North American Automated Clearing House Association), each year it moves more than $41 trillion and 24 billion electronic financial transactions. Initially created in the late 1960s by Californian banks with the Calwestern Automated Clearing House Association, from the beginning of ACH history there has been close interaction between private industry and the Fed. ACH advances were inextricably linked with the development of computers, and in the 1960s private computing was not well developed; as a result industry relied on the Fed’s computer processing capacity.

  • Ben S Bernanke: Clearinghouses, Financial Stability, and Financial Reform
    Ben S Bernanke: Clearinghouses, financial stability, and financial reform Speech by Mr Ben S Bernanke, Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, at the 2011 Financial Markets Conference, Stone Mountain, Georgia, 4 April 2011. The original speech, which contains various links to the documents mentioned, can be found on the US Federal Reserve System’s website. * * * I am pleased to speak once again at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta’s Financial Markets Conference. This year’s conference covers an interesting mix of topics bearing on the vital ongoing global debate on how best to prevent and respond to financial crises. Tonight I would like to discuss post-crisis reform as it relates to a prominent part of our financial market infrastructure – namely, clearinghouses for payments, securities, and derivatives transactions. This audience, I know, recognizes the importance of what is often called the “plumbing” of the financial system – a set of institutions that very safely and efficiently handles, under most circumstances, enormous volumes of financial transactions each day. Because clearinghouses and other parts of the financial infrastructure fared relatively well during the crisis – despite moments of significant stress – the public debate on financial reform has understandably focused on the risks posed by so-called too-big-to-fail financial firms, whose dramatic failures or near failures put our financial system and economy in dire jeopardy. Nevertheless, the smooth operation and financial soundness of clearinghouses and related institutions are essential for financial stability, and we must not take them for granted. Importantly, title 8 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) contains provisions aimed at improving the transparency, resilience, and financial strength of clearinghouses, which the act calls financial market utilities.

Annex 2: Current direct debit schemes (list) iii. Annex 3 and 4: differences in existing DD schemes. iv. Annex 5: Extract from McKinsey Report . Tables 1 About the EUC The authors of this research paper represent the community of users of payment system instruments at the European level. In particular, they constitute the group of users who sit on the European Payments Council (EPC) stakeholder consultation forum. They will be referred to in this paper as the End Users Committee (EUC). A full list of the organizations represented by the authors is given below. In early 2009, the EUC considered that, despite a number of meetings with the EPC and individual meetings had by various members of the committee with the European Commission and the European Central Bank, there was still insufficient understanding and clarity on the part of these three bodies as to the needs and views of SEPA users on the proposed SEPA direct debit scheme. There was also insufficient understanding within the user community of the issues at stake. The EUC therefore proposed to research and compile an analysis of the major problems confronting the adoption of the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA), with specific focus on SEPA direct debit (SDD). To this end, the EUC appointed three experts who have written this paper, with the full collaboration of all members of the EUC who have endorsed it as fully representing their views.
