We are on the verge of implementing eSign for our branches for maintenance tasks in addition to account opening and lending. I think this will help with some customers who tend to change signers rather frequently, such as with closers on settlement agents' accounts. I'm beginning to consider whether collecting their signatures on Resolutions adds value, or whether an authorization from the principals in the Resolution is sufficient? I am also considering whether we can use a separate authorized signer list with signatures as an appendix, rather than re-creating a signature card every time there is a signer added or deleted. Am I behind the times?

Can email notifications be sent for abandoned property? My understanding is that this is subject to what each state may require depending on the address the account holder is located. Some states require a written notice to be mailed. So if we meet E-SIGN requirements would that supersede state requirements? Would CAN-SPAM Act also need to be considered as not being in violation since it talks about "notification of a change in the recipient's standing or status"? I'm thinking this Act is more related for purposes of commercial electronic mail.

We would like to create an easier way for our consumers to sign up for E-Statements. What are the requirements, compliance wise for this? Currently, our customers need to log into their online banking, view a PDF disclosure that generates a "code", and customer then has to type in code and agree to terms and conditions. Compliance wise- can consumers just sign the disclosure/consent in person at lobby?
