Depositing Funds

Recently the banking industry introduced the Confirmation of Payee (CoP) service. The service is designed to provide added security and accuracy for online banking payments. When making payments the new service checks the recipient’s account name and number to see if they match bank records.

We are aware that this has meant that some people have been receiving a notification when making payments if the account name is not 100% correct. The latest version of our bank deposit form, including the full account name, is available here.

This is an industry-wide issue impacting deposits. The issue is not specific to any bank and is impacting multiple financial services businesses.

Please be assured that there is no impact on any payments being made by Forsyth Barr to clients.
