Regulations and GuidanceANSWER:
ANSWER:
The early withdrawal penalty is what differentiates a time account from other types of accounts.
The earliest withdrawal penalty must be at least seven days’ simple interest on amounts withdrawn within the first six days after deposit (or within six days after the most recent partial withdrawal).
If funds are withdrawn more than six days after the date of deposit or more than six days after the most recent partial withdrawal, no interest penalty is required under Regulation D.
These penalties are the minimum federal penalties required by Regulation D and the Federal Reserve Act. A bank may impose a greater penalty. If the bank fails to impose the early withdrawal penalty when required, the account may not be classified as a time deposit. The early withdrawal penalty language must be part of the account agreement with the depositor.
See 204.2(c)(1) footnote for information on when a time deposit may be paid during the early withdrawal penalty without a penalty being imposed.
Reference: 12 CFR 204.2(c)(1).

ANSWER:
Vendor risk management problems often involve one or more of the following issues:
Failure to train new staff or retain knowledgeable staff. Institutions may believe they can avoid hiring, retaining, or training staff because of a vendor’s expertise. Although an institution may be leveraging a third party’s expertise, staff at the institution must be knowledgeable about vendor activities and the compliance requirements for that activity to facilitate monitoring. Specifically, proper staffing or specialized training for existing personnel may be required. Similarly, banks should consider evaluating activity at the vendor’s location to ensure that risks are understood, and that staff has sufficient knowledge of vendor processes and controls.
