Like many other peer banks, Citizens employed certain practices to ensure the next-day crediting of deposits in situations when deposit slips contained mathematical errors. However, these past practices and disclosures, principally preceding to early 2011, could have been better. Our implementation of a new teller system in the fourth quarter of 2013 has automated this reconciliation process, and we believe our process is now considered among the best in the industry.

Over this period, the over- and under-credits to customers were about equal. Customers who were over-credited will keep the excess funds applied to their accounts and customers who were under-credited will be reimbursed. In addition to customer remediation, the company also agreed to pay fines totaling $20.5 million to the CFPB, the OCC and the FDIC.

Citizens Financial Group, Inc. operates as the bank holding company for Citizens Bank, N.A. and Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania that provide retail and commercial banking products and services in the United States. It operates through two segments, Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking.
