Setoff is one of the remedies that can be used to collect past-due loans. But do you understand the steps that must be taken before this right can be exercised?
What are
the legal requirements? Which accounts are subject to set off? What if there
are multiple owners? Learn the details, best practices, and methods with this
informative webinar.
AFTER
THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:
- Explain the legal requirements that must be satisfied before setoff is permitted
- Understand the differences between a contractual right of setoff and a common law right of setoff
- Distinguish the right of setoff from the foreclosure of a security interest, and when it is best to use each
- Determine when your institution can set off without violating the legal rights of other parties
- Identify which accounts are subject to setoff
WEBINAR DETAILS
Your institution has a common law right to set off
a depositor’s account for a debt the depositor owes to your institution if
certain legal requirements are satisfied. In addition, your institution may
have a contractual right of setoff, depending on the wording of your deposit
contracts. If a debtor defaults on a loan, when can your institution apply
money from the debtor’s deposit account to pay past due loan amounts? This webinar
will explain the legal requirements that must be satisfied, and the specific
steps that your institution must take, before exercising the right of setoff.
This webinar also will explain what happens if an account has multiple owners
and how to handle accounts which are being garnished by other creditors.
