Part 1: The Initial Customer Discussion About the Safe Deposit Box Rental Agreement Terms

The first part of this safe deposit webinar series covers the initial discussion that safe deposit personnel should have with the customer who is renting a safe deposit box. This  covers the following information:

  • Explains the difference between the two types of safe deposit contracts – the common contract form and the generic contract form
  • Shows the need for contract cards for each individual type of contract – individual, sole proprietor, fiduciary, committee, trustee, estate, minor, guardian

The webinar carefully reviews the typical rental agreement or contract between the bank (lessor) and the customer (lessee).

It explains the meaning of the following contract inclusions and strongly urges that the bank employee discuss the following with the customer.

Part 2: Screening the New Safe Deposit Customer

  1. Individual Renter
  2. Sole proprietor
  3. Joint renters
  4. Fiduciary renters
  5. Partnerships
  6. Corporations
  7. Unincorporated groups
  8. Other types of renters

Each of the eight types of customers and the responsibilities of the customer and the bank are examined in detail.  Although all of the eight types might not be offered by all banks, bank employees should know the difference between each of the eight types.
