`Meeting consumer, business and government payment needs. In a joint
`prepared statement, the CEOs of Bank of America, BB&T, Capital One, JPMorgan
`Chase, U.S. Bank, and Wells Fargo said, “Our customers want the ability to make
`payments to anyone, in real-time, making funds instantly available in the
`recipient’s bank account. To achieve this, we are combining our collective, bank-
`owned digital payments network (clearXchange) with our fraud, risk and
`authentication assets (Early Warning), to further ensure that our customers can
`send money, confidently, securely, and in real-time via their financial institutions.”

`Bank of America, BB&T, Capital One, JPMorgan Chase, and Wells Fargo as owners
`of Early Warning, pending completion of all applicable regulatory reviews.
`
`The complementary assets of the combined companies will bring
`unprecedented speed, security, and efficiency to U.S. payments, allowing
`financial institutions to meet consumers, businesses, and government
`customers’ demand for real-time payments.
`
`The enhanced platform will be open to all banks and credit unions, of any size,
`and will help modernize and secure the U.S. payment system as envisioned by
`the Federal Reserve Bank’s Payment System Improvement Initiative. The
`platform’s capabilities will also meet the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s
`vision of consumer protection in new faster payment systems.
`
`“The bank CEOs are providing leadership at a time when the industry is looking
`for guidance and customers’ expectations have rapidly evolved,” said Paul Finch,
`CEO of Early Warning.
`
`“With this acquisition, Early Warning is bringing together immediate funds
`availability, integrated authentication and fraud management capabilities into a
`single platform. The resulting security, reliability and consistency among financial
`institution payment services will provide a required catalyst to advance real-time
`payments,” added Finch.
