SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On May 16, 2019, the Board
published a Federal Register notice
(Notice) seeking public comment on
modifications to the Reserve Banks’
payment services to facilitate adoption
of a later same-day ACH processing and
settlement window.1 As described more
fully in the Notice, the ACH network is
made up of two network operators: The
Reserve Banks, which operate the
FedACH® service, and The Clearing
House Payments Company L.L.C. (TCH),
which operates the Electronic Payments
Network (EPN) service.2 The ACH
network is governed by the rules of the
ACH operators, which generally
incorporate the Nacha Operating Rules
1 84 FR 22123 (May 16, 2019). In addition, the
Board has announced that the Federal Reserve
intends to explore further expanded hours for NSS
and the Fedwire Funds Service, up to 24 × 7 × 365,
to support a wide range of payment activities,
including liquidity management in private-sector
real-time gross settlement services for faster
payments. See 84 FR 39297 (August 9, 2019). The
Board is analyzing the risk, operational, and policy
implications of further expanding operating hours
of NSS and the Fedwire Funds Service.
2 The Reserve Banks settle all ACH transactions
that are originated or received by FedACH
customers, including transactions that are
exchanged between the two operators. TCH
arranges settlement for only those ACH transactions
that are originated and received by EPN customers
(that is, transactions within the EPN network). The
Reserve Banks settle ACH transactions by posting
credits and debits to the sending and receiving
banks’ Federal Reserve accounts at the settlement
time and date provided in the FedACH processing
schedule. TCH uses NSS to settle its in-network
ACH transactions in participants’ Federal Reserve
accounts, typically sending NSS files at the same
times the Reserve Banks settle FedACH
transactions.
