Regulation D

*On April 28, 2020, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (Board) published an interim final rule to amend Regulation D (Reserve Requirements of Depository Institutions) to delete the six-per-month limit on convenient transfers from the “savings deposit” definition.

The Federal Reserve Board announced an interim final rule to amend Regulation D to delete the 6-per-month limit on convenient transfers from “savings deposit” accounts.

Regulation D is a federal regulation that requires all financial institutions to enforce controls and limits on the number of certain types of transfers or withdrawals from a savings account. Regulation D allows for a maximum of six transactions each calendar month from a savings account. Transactions from a savings account exceeding six in a calendar month must be rejected and/or assessed a punitive fee to deter further activity of this nature.

Transactions from a savings account affected by Regulation D are:

overdraft protection transfers
authorized payables (ACH, pre-authorized debits, etc.) to third parties
automatic transfers excluding transfers to loans
transfers completed within home banking or mobile banking

Transactions from a savings account not affected by Regulation D are:

in-person withdrawals or transfers
ATM withdrawals

Southwest Oklahoma FCU is obligated to enforce a fee of $10 for each Regulation D transaction from a savings account that exceeds six in a calendar month. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Thank you for understanding as your credit union continues to work within the stringent parameters of our federal regulatory requirements.
