Security - ACH complies with strict regulations and reduces the risk of fraud
Limitations: Processing Time - May take more than a day to settle, can sometimes be sped up for
a fee
Transaction Limits - Limits on the amount of money that can be transferred through ACH transactions which hinders companies that routinely make large transactions

What are the main uses, benefits, and limitations of Fed Wire? correct answers Main Uses: In the
1910s, Fed Wire was a dedicated network that would use morse code to transfer funds between the Reserve Banks, the Board, and the US Treasury
It was originally created because physical delivery of this cash was risky (due to robberies) and costly
Was modernized later on to work with computer systems to handle transactions
Real-time settlement, Large transactions are possible through it
Benefits: Real-time settlement - Provides immediate final payment
Security - Reduces the risk of fraud
Certainty of funds - Transactions on the Fedwire are irreversible
Liquidity management - Allows institutions to transfer large sums of money quickly Limitations: Cost - Fed Wire transactions are relatively more expensive than other payment methods

Mobile Payment Use Cases correct answers Peer-to-Peer - Transfers occur when one person pays
another person using a mobile device. The device uses either a preloaded app or a browser-based
app to initiate, authenticate, and transfer funds
In-Person - Purchases are initiated using a mobile device where the buyer and seller are in-
person, usually at a brick-and-mortar retail location where the product/service is immediately delivered
Remote - Payments are made when a buyer purchases goods or services using a mobile device, but the buyer is not physically present with the seller and the goods are not immediately delivered (as with eCommerce)
