1 XXX Department, XXX Corp. 000 Happy Hollow Rd West Lafayette, IN, LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL Dear Minister, Here is the report you requested about the fee; based overdraft programs and the augment about the programs from customers, critics and banks, along with a policy recommendation for Federal Reserve. The study included both primary and secondary research. The primary study focused on a survey of customers who use fee-based overdraft program. The programs are actually very popular among many big banks, but the information gathered shows that customers using these services are not satisfied with them and even worse, many banks customers are not aware that as part of the process of obtaining the debit card, banks automatically enroll their customers in overdraft program. However, banks claim that the programs definitely protect customers from the bounced-check fees which cost them more. Recommendation for Federal Reserve includes making people aware of these programs, educating people how to avoid overdraft and limiting banks from charging overdraft fee towards individuals. I am grateful to Purdue University s students, staff and the 56 residents in my community (Whispering Winds) for helping me develop a questionnaire and kindly answering my questions. Their enthusiasm and support contributed greatly to the success of this research project. Besides I appreciate Jane Thoman, who works for Bank of America, told me a lot about the overdraft issue. Secondary sources included the investigation of over-draft.com, the online report of GAO (Government Accountability Office) and news of Federal Reserve, books and some other online recourse. Please call me, Mr. Alert, if I may provide additional information or answer questions. I would be pleased to discuss this report and its recommendation with you at your request. Thank you for your confidence in selecting Banking Practices Committee to prepare this comprehensive report. Sincerely, Songyan He Banking Practices Committee Consultant ii

3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Purpose of report The purposes of this report are to (1) discuss the pros and cons about the fee-based overdraft programs, (2) find out the current stance the Federal Reserve has taken and (3) recommend way for Federal Reserve to deal with the overdraft programs. Fees-based Overdraft programs at banks Most survey respondents are against overdraft programs and do not know much about the programs until they are charged overdraft fee by banks. Most banks do not publicize these programs and enroll their customers automatically after they open accounts. Federal Reserve is making laws to regulating these fee-based overdraft programs The results of this study show that Federal Reserve need to make more efficient rules to regulate the fee-based overdraft programs. Recommendations for Federal Reserve Based on the findings from the survey, the following recommendations are made to help Federal Reserve refine the laws about banks overdraft fee programs and conduct them more efficiently. 1. Enact new laws to limit the total maximum overdraft fee that banks can charge their customers. 2. Educate people how to manage their account well to avoid overdraft fees by advertising on TV, web sites or newspaper. 3. Increase people awareness about banks fee-based overdraft programs. 4. Refine the monitoring mechanism by taking advantage of customers comments, suggestions and complaints. iv

4 REGULATE THE FEE-BASED OVERDRAFT PROGRAMS INTRODUCTION Since the mid-1990s, consumers have increasingly used electronic forms of payment such as debit cards for many transactions, from retail purchases to bill payment. By 2006 more than two-thirds of all U.S. noncash payments were made by electronic payments (including credit cards, debit cards, automated clearing house, and electronic benefit transfers), while the number of paper payments (e.g., cash) has decreased due to the rapid growth in the use of debit cards(gao,2008). However, not everyone has sufficient money in bank accounts when she or he makes a payment, so banks started services that permit customers to overdraft for a fee. When an account balance falls below zero, banks will provide the account holders with an instant loan and pay off their bills first. Besides, customers can also choose to link checking accounts and debit cards to their savings accounts, lines of credit, or credit cards. Once they overdraft, available funds are automatically transferred to their checking accounts. However banks will also change transfer fee from these optional services. The services seemly benefit the customers a lot, but according to the investigation of Brattleboro Reformer, which is the third-largest daily newspaper in Vermont State, banks collected more than $17 billion in overdraft fees in That number nearly doubled in In 2009, banks are expected to bring in up to nearly $40 billion in overdraft (Martin, 2009). On the other hand, some people still claim that they love these services since the services keep them from becoming embarrassed if they write the check to a friend or business partner and the overdraft protections are much cheaper than the charge by bouncing a check (Pritchard, 2008). Data for this report came from conducting surveys towards approximate 100 residents in Indiana State, interviewing a counselor of Bank of America and searching online sources from online newspapers, Federal Reserve, Government Accountability Office (GAO) which has conducted telephone surveys of 3,310 adults about the overdraft issue. Fee-based Overdraft Program Up to 2003, Fee-based overdraft programs had been used by over 1,000 banks and other financial institutions. The programs charge fees (typically $20 to $39 for each overdraft) to cover check or ATM overdrafts for account holders (Durham, 2003). Banks also make revenues through these programs and encourage their customers to join these programs. Currently, more than 75% of banks automatically sign customers up for overdraft programs, according to a study by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and some banks charge as much as $39 when customers overdraw their bank 1

5 account by even a few dollars (Liberto, 2009). Purposes of the study The purposes of the study are to (1) discuss the pros and cons of the fee-based overdraft programs, (2) find out the stance the Federal Reserve has taken and (3) recommend ways for Federal Reserve to deal with the overdraft programs. People have big disputes on the fee-based overdraft programs: banks claim that overdraft protections aren't loans, but a consumer convenience; however the critics point out that banks are actually making money from these programs. Recommendations will help Fed regulate the programs and let customers get real benefit from the programs. Scope of the study This study investigates participants attitudes toward the fee-based programs, their experiences paying overdraft fee and their preference between paying overdraft fee and being declined by their banks. Only overdraft fees associated with ATM, checks, debit cards and electronic transfers are included in the study since these programs are most popular nowadays. It also includes the Fed s current policies about these programs. Other bank fees like account maintenance fee, ATM surcharge fee and foreign ATM fee, etc. are not included in this report. Sources and Methods Recent business reports, an interview with a consular working at Bank of America and online sources were consulted for background information, the pros and cons about the overdraft programs and Federal Reserve s policies about the programs. In addition, a questionnaire survey of students and staff at Purdue University and residents in whispering winds community was conducted to learn about their attitudes about overdraft programs. The people living in whispering winds community are basically lower middle class or students, who do not own a house themselves. In all, 89 individuals responded to the survey. Figure 1 shows the percentage of students, staff and residents who participated in the survey. Figure 1 1

7 RESULT OF THE STUDY The findings of the study will be presented in two categories: overall customers attitude, pros and cons about the overdraft programs, and the stance that Federal Reserve has taken. Customers Attitude about the Fee-Based Programs A major finding of the survey is that most respondents are against the programs and had bad experiences about it. Data tabulation shows that 96 percent of the respondents hate these fee-based overdraft services. 60 percent of them prefer the bounce check fee to the overdraft fee. 90 percent of them are enrolled into these programs automatically after they have opened an account in banks and they claims that they do not know much about the programs until they are charged overdraft fee by banks. Main reason for most customers do not familiar with these programs is that banks do not publicize sufficient information on web sites and their institution branches. Even worse, banks hide these programs behind so that they can get more customers automatically enroll into these programs. Figure 2 shows the percentage of depository institution branches and web sites that do not provide a comprehensive list of overdraft fees and terms and conditions (GAO, 2008). Figure Percentage of Depository Institution Branches and Web Sites That Did Not Provide a Comprehensive List of Overdraft Fees and Terms and Conditions comprehensive fee information Account termsand conditions Institution Web site Branch visit Source: GAO GAO (General Accounting Office) concluded the 5 possible outcomes of an insufficient fund transition or withdraw and the survey was conducted to the participants according to these possible outcomes. Figure 3 shows the details of 4

8 these possible outcomes and 62 percent of the participants joined the two optional overdraft programs: overdraft to a linked account and overdraft to a line of credit. Figure 3: bank options Ad hoc overdraft Courtesy overdraft Overdraft to a linked saving account Overdraft to a line of credit Transaction or withdraw denied How money transferred to the overdraft account Not publicized to the banks customers.

Such a policy can be used by the bank to squeeze extra overdraft fees from customers. For example: a customer has $100 in check account and spends following amount in a day: 9 am: $4 10 am: $3 1 pm: $5 3 pm: $2 5

9 4 pm: $105 Banks will purposely put the spending in the following order (highest to lowest): $105, $5, $4, $3, $2. In this way the banks can charge the most overdraft fees (Thoman. J, personal communication, December 4, 2009). Cons: People against the fee-based overdraft programs say that the programs did not help people in the long run and it costs too much to overdraft. A participant says: the reason you had one is because you didn t have enough money available, and now you have less. According to Eric Halperin (2009), director of the Washington, D.C., office of the Center for Responsible Lending, Every interaction with your bank shouldn't be an act of self-defense. It's very reasonable to say that consumers should have the right upfront to decide whether they want their overdraft covered through ATM or debit transactions. The survey also finds that what's also troubling is that most bank customers are automatically enrolled in overdraft programs without their knowledge. Currently, more than 75% of banks automatically sign customers up for overdraft programs, according to a study by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (Liberto, 2009). Banks aren't required to send a notice to the customer that they're enrolled in the program unless the bank chooses to promote the program, and most don't. Consumer advocates say these programs are nothing more than high-interest, short-term loans foisted upon unsuspecting customers (Bruce, 2009). According to bank overdraft.com, during 2009, banks are expected to bring in between $27 billion to $38.5 billion in overdraft charges from nearly 50 million customers. Bank of America earns about $40 million a year from overdraft charges and that some of the Social Security recipients in the suit lost 20% of their monthly income in a single day because of bank fees (Dolan, 2009). Moebs Services, a research company that has conducted studies for the government as well as banks, estimates that 90 percent of overdraft fees are paid by the poorest 10 percent of banks' customer base (Liberto, 2009). So the fee-based overdraft programs are actually turning into means of making profits rather than sincere services. Pros: People who like the programs claim that fee-based overdraft programs help them a lot when they do not have enough money available in their accounts. These programs avoid embarrassment if they write checks to friends or business partners or the frustration when they need cash anxiously but unable to withdraw from the nearest ATM. 6

10 The other benefit that you can avoid bounced check fees from the retailer. If you don t have overdraft protection, you may have to pay a fee (Non-Sufficient Funds or NSF) to your bank and an additional fee (Returned-Check) to the retailer. Ultimately, you can end up with negative reports in your ChexSystems file (Pritchard, 2008). In addition, if one returns the amount of money that he overdrafts as soon as possible, the overdraft only cost $20-$30 and it s absolutely better than losing a big client or business deal. Finally, some overdraft protections allow customers link the individual's checking account to their savings and credit cards. In this way, overdraft fee will be avoided (Thoman. J, personal communication, December 4, 2009). Federal Reserve recent policies about fee-based overdraft According to the findings on Federal Reserve official website, the Federal Reserve wants to limit as well as regulate the fee-based overdraft programs and is currently trying to improve laws to protect customers from overdraft programs. The law released on May 2, 2008 by Federal Reserve about overdraft programs: -Banks would be prohibited from applying payments in excess of the minimum in a manner that maximizes interest charges. This rule will stop the old tricks that banks used to play (put the amount a customer spend in the order of from highest to lowest rather than in chronological order). -Banks would be prohibited from imposing interest charges using the "two-cycle" method, which computes interest on balances on days in billing cycles preceding the most recent billing cycle. The Board's proposal under the FTC Act also addresses acts or practices in connection with a bank s payment of overdrafts on a deposit account, whether the overdraft is created by check, a withdrawal at an automated teller machine, a debit card purchase, or other transactions. The proposal requires institutions to provide consumers with notice and an opportunity to opt out of the payment of overdrafts, before any overdraft fees or charges may be imposed on consumers' accounts (Fed, 2008). Fed chair Ben Bernanke released new rules on overdraft fees on November 12, 2009: Starting on July 1, 2010, all banks will have to ask their customers to opt in to overdraft protection plans for ATM and most debit card transactions. The banking industry was not pleased by the Fed's move (Liberto, 2009). Even though banks are limited by this now rule and some banks say they will stop charging for overdraft, the average fee for overdraft is expected to go up in 2010 (Moebs Services Inc., 2009). 7

11 average fee per overdraft Figure 4: Average Fee For Overdraft From 1999 To Big Banks community Banks Source: Moebs Services Inc CONCLUSIONS: 1. The fee-based overdraft programs are services that bank pay the amount of overdraft for their customers first with overdraft fees ($20-$39) when the customers withdraw money, purchase items or transfer funds from an insufficient funds account percent of the respondents object to the fee-based overdraft programs and had bad experience with the programs before. 3. Banks try to make maximum profit from these programs and enroll customers automatically into these programs without showing further information. 4. Federal Reserve keeps trying to refine the laws to regulate the behaviors of banks and protect customers from immoderate overdraft programs. RECOMMENDATIONS Supported by the findings and conclusions of this study, the following recommendations are offered to help Federal Reserve regulate the fee-based overdraft programs better. 1. Increase people awareness and knowledge about banks fee-based overdraft programs by (1) asking banks to update information about the fee-based overdraft programs on their web sites; (2) requiring each bank has a clear introduction about the programs if it wants to promote the programs; (3) designing an eye-catching advertisements and posing them inside every bank. 2. Enact new laws to limit the total maximum overdraft fee that banks can charge their customers. 8

12 3. Educate people how to manage their account well in order to avoid overdraft fees by advertising on TV, web sites or newspaper. Refine the monitoring mechanism by taking advantage of customers comments, suggestions and complaints. Federal Reserve can set up a web site that provides a platform for customers telling their stories or bad experiences about banks overdraft fee, so in this way, Federal Reserve can find the banks which does not obey the new rules and eventually enforce the law thoroughly. 9

13 APPENDIX Banks have implemented the fee-based programs for a long time. The programs allow customers overdraft up to a certain dollar amount and pay a fee for that.
