IN THE EVENT OF A BUSINESS DISRUPTION
AT THE FEDERAL RESERVE
Federal Reserve Cash Services maintains comprehensive
business continuity plans that will be activated in the event of a business
disruption. The Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland’s business continuity
plans are aligned with those of other Federal Reserve Districts to support
continuity of service. Please visit our
national Cash Services business continuity page (http://www.frbservices.org/businesscontinuity/cash_services.html)
for more information.
If the normal provision of cash services is impaired, the
Fourth District will notify its customers via the following methods: FedLine
for the Web and FedPhone broadcast messages.
ACCESSING FEDERAL RESERVE CASH SERVICES
If your normal currency and coin ordering channels
(e.g., FedLine for the Web and FedPhone) are unavailable, you can also
place orders by contacting your local Federal Reserve office via telephone.
In order to expedite our Due Diligence process, please ensure that the
employee who contacts our Federal Reserve office is reflected on your
institution's Official Authorization List (OAL). Please see contact numbers
provided below.
If a Fourth District Fed office becomes inaccessible for
an extended period of time, your financial institution may be directed
to place orders with other Federal Reserve offices. You may also be informed
about restrictions on currency and coin orders and deposits, and may be
directed to alternative pick-up and delivery points.
