Overdrafts: Ledger Balance vs. Available Balance
When it comes to overdrafts, do you use the ledger balance or do you use the available balance? Do you clearly communicate to your customers which balance you use? In the last several years, we’ve seen banks get into UDAAP trouble for these issues. There’s nothing that requires you to use a specific balance method but you do need to be aware of the potential risks associated with them. You also want to make sure that your disclosures and account agreements are clear on the issue to ensure they can make informed decisions.
