Regulation CC - Availability of Funds
and Collection of Checks requires banks to make funds deposited in
transaction accounts available within specified time periods,
disclose their availability policies to customers, and begin
accruing interest on such deposits promptly. The disclosures are
intended to alert customers that their ability to use deposited
funds may be delayed, prevent unintentional (and potentially
costly) overdrafts, and allow customers to compare the policies of
different banks before deciding at which bank to deposit funds.
Regulation CC also requires notice to the depositary bank and to a
customer of nonpayment of a check. Model disclosure forms, clauses,
and notices are appended to the regulation to ease
compliance.
