    Preview
    In one of three ways: Note: The term 'subscriber' refers to your 'member'. Electronic Payments (ACH) - Fiserv's preference is to send all payments electronically.

This means that the historical behavior of a large group of accounts must be studied to determine when, on average, their deposits leave the institution. This behavior determines the estimated average maturity. There are other procedures that may be used but disruptions in the financial mark  More...
  • 6. How are ALM and Budgeting related? Public
