Waiving Overdraft Fees for Board of Directors

09/12/2011

During our annual internal audit of Reg. O, we discovered that overdraft fees are being waived for the board of directors. The overdrafts were under $1,000 and the account was not consecutively overdrawn for 5 days or more.

Management has decided that proving these "similar circumstances" may not be a risk we want to take with examiners. How should we handle this violation? Should we have the board members that are in violation pay the fees that were waived? Or should we implement training and awareness to ensure this violation does not happen again?
