NACHA’S CODE OF CONDUCT
NACHA manages the development, administration, and governance of
the ACH Network and is the national association responsible for
ACH payments. It is important that activities that affect the
ACH Network be conducted with the highest levels of integrity,
professionalism, and fairness. This Code of Conduct has been
adopted to further such integrity in the best interest of a
mutually beneficial network. This Code of Conduct identifies the
standards of behavior expected of members of NACHA and its
various programs, and non-member organizations engaged in
NACHA’s activities and/or providing services to NACHA. An
organization and its representatives are in good standing under
this Code if they:
-
Adhere to the spirit as well as the letter of all applicable
regulations and laws, including antitrust, banking, privacy,
and other relevant laws;
-
Avoid even the appearance of any criminal offense or
professional misconduct;
-
Conduct business in a manner that does not adversely affect
the ACH Network;
-
Conduct all activities in a professional manner, thereby
bringing credit to the payments profession;
-
Remain current with all financial obligations to NACHA;
-
Comply with all applicable NACHA policies and procedures; and
-
Work together to promote the efficiency, reliability, and
security of the ACH Network.
** NACHA reserves the right to disassociate itself from any
organization that, in NACHA’s opinion, fails to abide by these
principles or otherwise brings discredit to NACHA and/or the
payments profession.
