A. Electronic signatures used in transactions by and with financial institutions are enforceable to the full extent of the law.

Such evidence may include but is not limited to evidence that the purported signer received a direct or indirect benefit or value from the transaction, such as the deposit of funds into the purported signer's preexisting account with the financial institution; the purported signer's receipt of loan proceeds; or the payment of a debt owed by the purported signer.
