CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER

Notice 99-82
TO: The Chief Operating Officer of each
financial institution and others concerned
in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District
SUBJECT
Delay in the Effective Date of
Revised Prices for Payments Services
DETAILS
Each year in early November, the Federal Reserve announces pricing changes to its
payments services to take effect on January 1 of the upcoming year. While we will again announce
price changes in early November this year, the effective date for revised prices will be delayed until
April 1, 2000.
The delay in the effective date for pricing changes is to help ensure a smooth transition to
the year 2000. It represents one less issue for this Bank and financial institutions to deal with at a
time when we need to focus on Year 2000-driven events and plans, as well as activities planned
around leap year dates.
We have been working with financial institutions in many areas to facilitate the transition
to the Year 2000 and to communicate with the public and the media about the readiness of the financial services sector. Please let us know if you have any suggestions about further measures that we
can take to simplify processes during the rollover.
