Policy for Deceased Customer's Loans/Account

Answered by: 

Question: 
We have a member who passed away last month and has a signature loan and a line of credit with us. Are we within our rights to place the funds in the account towards these loans?
Answer: 

That depends on state law, if you have the right of set-off, if there is a POD on the account, etc.

You should consult your legal counsel to see what options you have.
