Escheatment Solutions

NPG and Georgeson have created a partnership to bring escheatment solutions to your bank or credit union.

Why Be Concerned About Unclaimed Property and Escheatment?
Nearly 70% of financial institutions are not fully compliant with Unclaimed Property laws – audits have increased dramatically and financial institutions are at a greater risk of fines and penalities. With NPG by your side, we can help you retain assets and reduce your risk of non-compliance.
