WHAT?

To protect their customers and employees during the COVID-19 pandemic, many financial institutions are encouraging their customers to conduct transactions electronically. In addition, many state and local government authorities have issued orders asking residents to practice social distancing and shelter-in-place, and to close businesses other than those that are considered essential services. While financial institutions are considered an essential service, many consumers may prefer conducting transactions electronically to reduce the risk of becoming infected. Before information related to a consumer transaction that is required to be in writing can be provided electronically, the E-Sign Act requires that a six-step consumer consent process be completed.

How do you balance the “new normal” of online applications, electronic disclosure delivery, electronic signatures, the requirements of E-Sign and regulatory disclosure requirements while managing identity theft risk and application fraud? 

WHY?

Learn the steps that must be followed to be in compliance with E-Sign. What additional steps should be taken to verify the customer’s identity in view of an increased risk of identity theft?
