Payment systems are undergoing a radical transformation – and Check 21 is just the tip of the iceberg. New laws and regulations are forcing both corporations and financial institutions to rethink the way they handle different payment methods. Other issues, including privacy demands and anti-money laundering requirements, have helped foster an explosion of innovative new systems for processing payments.

The Journal of Payment Systems Law is your guide to the legal implications of conducting business in this new environment. Articles and columns in the Journal explore developments in the law relating to new alternative systems including:

Person-to-person money transfer systems such as PayPal
Electronic benefit cards
Electronic gift cards
ACH networks

As well as coverage of established systems, such as:

Point-of-sale systems
Debit cards
Credit cards
Automated teller machines
Paper checks, including corporate checks, consumer checks, and bank checks
Cash
Electronic funds transfers
And more…

You’ll learn about federal and state laws and regulatory developments that affect payment systems, from the UCC to the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and the Expedited Funds Availability Act. You’ll also stay on top of issues and developments related to Check 21.

You’ll learn how newer systems can limit your bank’s exposure to fraud, forgery, and hacking. And you’ll always be aware of new risks as they arise – the journal is updated eight times each year.
