Curriculum

Part 1: Safe Deposit Legal Issues: Forfeiture and Recovery - Proper Handling of Safe Deposit Box Surrenders

This safe deposit webinar covers detailed steps for handling various types of safe deposit box surrenders, including: 

  • “In-person” surrender;
  • Customer box surrender notification (along with the box keys) via mail; 
  • Steps when safe deposit box keys are sent via mail without additional instructions


It will clearly identify what is a 'surrender'. 

It will explore best practices to use for situations where there are contents and in which there are no contents found in the surrendered box. 

It also will address what to do if a customer requests the bank, itself, to access the box and ship the contents to the renter.

Part 2: Safe Deposit Legal Issues: Forfeiture and Recovery - Requirements for Box Opening for Non Payment

This 90-minute branch banking webinar examines break-open for nonpayment of rent procedures that should be followed to ensure compliance and reduce risks, including

  1. Timing for break-open

  2. Procedures at the actual break-open

  3. Taking an inventory of the box

  4. Inventory Declaration to the renter

  5. Pre-auction details (if bank elect an auction of box contents)

  6. Proceeds of sale at auction of box contents

  7. Handling miscellaneous property 


Break-opens, although optional, are a way banks can “free up” boxes that are not earning revenue. For many banks they have become a necessary year round requirement.
