An Update from President Paul Kohler on Covid-19 and PPP.

 

April 29, 2020

Change to Reg D

The Federal Reserve Board has lifted the Regulation D (Reg D) limits. Reg D previously limited transactions from savings or money market accounts to six transactions each month without being present at the financial institution. This action will  grant more flexibility to consumers to access their savings deposits at a time when many are facing financial hardships due to the coronavirus pandemic. You can make unlimited transactions electronically, by phone, or by automatic transfer.

If you have any questions, please email info@charterbank.com or call us. We are always happy to help.
