Circular 87-87

TO: The Chief Operations Officer of
all financial institutions in the
Eleventh Federal Reserve District
SUBJECT
Fee and availability schedule for comnercial check services
DETAILS
Effective January 1, 1988, new fee schedules for check services will
be implemented at all Federal Reserve Banks. For financial institutions in
the Eleventh District, most check service fees remain the same as last year's.
City fine sort fees for the Houston Branch have been lowered for 1988.
In addition to our traditional check services, we are pleased to
introduce several new options designed to add more convenience to our payments
services. These new options include a city and RCPC group sort offering at
the Houston Branch and an RCPC group sort for the head office in Dallas.
Also, a later country deadline is being established at the Dallas Office.
Information about deposit deadlines, availability and new prices for
check services offered to in-zone depositors at each of the four Eleventh
District offices is provided in the enclosure. Availability schedules and
prices for interterritory check collection services offered by other Federal
Reserve Banks are available upon request.
ENCLOSURES
The check collection service and fee schedule is enclosed.
