Who We Are
The Accredited Standards Committee X9 (ASC X9) is an industry non-profit association made up of members from the financial services industry. ASC X9’s mission is to develop and manage voluntary, consensus-based technical standards certified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Mission & Objectives of ASC X9
ASC X9 brings more than three decades of leadership in financial industry standards development. Its members include bankers, vendors, government agencies, associations, security experts, software producers, consultants and others who address technical issues, find the best solutions, and codify them into American National Standards (ANS). More than 200 organizations are members of ASC X9.
Members join one or more of four standards subcommittees — Payments, E-Credit, Securities, and Data Security—through four membership levels (see Subcommittees). Each ascending membership category or level provides members with greater benefits over the total management of the standards development process.
