Program
Content:
Today,
someone you have never met walks in with a power of attorney and demands to
be added to your customer’s accounts—a customer with hundreds of thousands
of dollars with your bank. Your customer is elderly and has no children.
Immediately, your mind jumps to thoughts of fraud and protecting your
customer as you scramble to figure out what to do. This is when well
written and thought out power of attorney procedures for your financial
institution can keep you out of litigation and liability. We don’t want to
have to decide what to do in each case. We need to know our institution’s
procedures to protect the bank and the customer and begin to work those
procedures so that we follow state law, our internal procedures, and our
signature card contract. This program will look at power of attorney “dos
and don’ts” and how to prevent your institution from making costly mistakes
in handling these high-risk documents. We will also provide you with some
guidance about what procedures you should have in place for handling POAs.
As a bonus, you will receive a chart with your state law link and key
components for your state’s POA statute.
