• Vol. 11 No. 51 Des Moines, Iowa N A C H A President Identifies Need For Private Sector Commitment clearing houses, the facilities that process and deliver electronic payment transac tions as an alternative to the physical movement o f paper checks, must be controlled by the private sector rather than the Federal Reserve if it is to ever realize its potential, observed James F. Lordan, president o f the National Autom ated C le a rin g H o u s e A s s o c i a t i o n (NACHA), at the association’s an nual conference, March 21-23 at the Capitol Hilton, W ashington, D.C. The Federal Reserve, which pro vides check clearing services as well as the data processing, settlement and delivery services for 31 o f the 32 ACH associations, has little incentive to encourage electronic data transmission o f ACH entries, Mr. Lordan explained in his address be fore nearly 700 financial institution and corporate representatives attending the conference. “ The ACH concept is still far short o f being truly an electronic delivery system, superior to the check system. The vast m ajority of ACH transactions are still delivered to their ultimate destination physi cally either on tape or paper. “ The Federal Reserve, as the al A • • • • ® ® u tom ated m ost exclusive provider o f the ACH network, still has rights to approve rules and system s changes and therefore can dictate the pace and character o f ACH expansion.” Mr. Lordan, senior vice president o f State Street Bank and Trust Co., Boston, explained that financial in stitutions have no incentive to in stall electronic sending and receiv ing devices since they gain no com petitive advantage o f faster funds availability schedules for electronic transmissions. No issue is more crit ical to the ACH marketplace accept ance than providing availability of funds in a superior m ethod than other payment system alternatives. The N ACH A board o f directors is currently investigating the feasibili ty o f a private sector processing alternative. It is my hope that what will evolve is a two tier ACH network, one level primarily operated through a m ajor national telecommunication vendor and fully electronic from origination to delivery, and the other level, a continuation o f the pre sent Federal Reserve processing. I envision the N ACH A sponsored net work as a complement to the Fed, providing the interregional ex April 11,1983 change or the processing for local operating sites.” While Mr. Lordan noted that the ACH movement could not have made the progress without the Fed, priorities have now changed and N ACH A has becom e the catalyst for new ACH applications such as the Corporate Trade Payments Pro ject currently underway whereby corporations can transmit payments and supporting data to their sup pliers. The National Autom ated Clearing House Association consists o f 32 automated clearing house (ACH) associations who serve 15,000 finan cial institutions in the processing of electronic payments. Since the fall o f 1978, all U.S. automated clearing houses have been linked, providing a nationwide electron ic paym ent interchange mechanism which to date has essen tially been consumer-payment ori ented. The new corporate aspects of N ACH A represent the first time that electronic payments technology will allow corporations to originate and receive trade payments through the ACH network o f automated clearing house associations. Beginning in June, the system will be set in m otion with several Fortune 500 companies being evolved, including Sears, Black and Decker, Don't gam ble when choosing a correspondent bonk.
