ABA backs Nacha proposal to formally define 'banking day' in ACH rules

Nacha has proposed writing a formal definition of 'banking day' into its operating rules, replacing reliance on whether a bank is physically open. ABA's comment letter backs the change, arguing it modernizes how settlement timing is measured across the ACH Network. Relevant for payments and operations teams tracking ACH rule changes.

  • Nacha proposed defining 'banking day' as a calendar day other than a Saturday, Sunday or federal banking holiday in the United States.
  • The proposal would replace references to 'date' with 'banking day' in the definition of 'settlement date'.
  • The term 'business day' would be eliminated from that section of Nacha's rules.
  • ABA submitted a letter urging Nacha to adopt the proposal, citing greater certainty, consistency and operational fairness.
  • Current practice relies on an understanding that 'banking day' means Monday through Friday excluding federal holidays, according to Nacha.

Eighth Circuit strikes down Fed's debit card interchange fee cap

A federal appeals court has struck down the Federal Reserve's 15-year-old Regulation II, which capped debit card interchange fees. This affects how banks with over $10 billion in assets calculate swipe fees, and the Fed must now rewrite the rule. Compliance and payments teams should track the Fed's response.

  • The Eighth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the Fed's Regulation II debit card interchange fee structure, adopted in 2011.
  • The ruling upholds a lower court decision from August 2025 in which Judge Daniel Traynor found the Durbin Amendment bars the Fed from considering costs beyond incremental authorization, clearance or settlement.
  • Under the current rule, institutions with more than $10 billion in assets can collect 21 cents per debit transaction plus 0.05% of the transaction amount and an additional cent for fraud prevention.
  • The court ordered the Fed to rewrite the rule because it improperly allowed banks to include costs such as fraud prevention in swipe fee calculations.
  • A separate federal appellate court is considering similar questions in the Linney's Pizza case, where the district court upheld the Fed's rule.

US housing starts fall again in September, missing forecasts at 1.221m

The American Bankers Association's DataBank note reads the September Census Bureau housing report for banks with mortgage and construction exposure. Starts fell for the month, missed market expectations and ran below a year ago, continuing a decline the ABA traces to a 2022 peak. The single forward-looking positive is multifamily permitting. This is a short indicator piece, useful for pipeline and credit-demand context.

  • September housing starts were 1.221 million SAAR, below the 1.305 million market expectation and 5.2% under the revised August figure of 1.288 million.
  • The September reading was 7.4% below the September 2025 rate of 1.319 million, continuing a decline the ABA dates to a 2022 peak.
  • Single-unit starts fell 4.6% and multiunit starts fell 6.7% for the month, while single-unit permits fell 4% and multiunit permits rose 6.1%.
  • Starts in the South rose 6.1% from August to 714,000, the only region up for the month.
  • The ABA Office of the Chief Economist cites affordability, labor shortages, input costs and elevated mortgage rates, and says residential building could remain subdued.

US industrial production rose 0.7% in September as utilities surged

The Federal Reserve's September industrial production report, summarised by the ABA Banking Journal, shows headline output up 0.7% after a flat August, driven by utilities and consumer goods. Manufacturing managed only a modest gain as motor vehicle output fell. For bank economists and credit teams tracking the real economy, the composition matters as much as the headline.

  • Total industrial production rose 0.7% in September and stood 2.2% above its year-earlier level at 104.0% of the 2017 average.
  • Utilities output surged 3.5% and manufacturing rose 0.3%, while business equipment was unchanged among the major market groups.
  • Motor vehicles and parts output fell 3.0%, dragging on durable manufacturing, which edged up just 0.1% for the month.
  • Semiconductor and related electronic components output rose 28.4% in the third quarter, lifting durable manufacturing to a 3.8% annual growth rate.
  • Capacity utilization moved up to 76.9%, which remains 2.5 percentage points below its 1972 to 2025 long-run average.

A short data note from the ABA Office of the Chief Economist on the Commerce Department's September 2026 retail sales estimate, with the trade group's read on what it means for consumer lending demand. Useful for bank economists and lending teams tracking consumer demand signals.

  • September 2026 retail and food services sales reached $745 billion, up 0.8% from August, exceeding the 0.3% market expectation.
  • August 2026 retail sales growth was revised upward to 1.3% from an initial 1.1%.
  • Gasoline station sales rose 6.4% in September, while sales excluding gas stations rose only 0.2%.
  • Retail sales were up 6.2% year over year compared with September 2025.
  • The ABA Office of the Chief Economist warns that sustained higher essential spending could hurt consumer loan performance.

Household net worth rose nearly $13 trillion in Q2 2026, ABA data shows

A brief ABA DataBank item tracks household net worth through the second quarter of 2026, finding equity gains behind a sharp rise. The item is short but relevant for compliance and risk teams tracking consumer spending resilience amid labor market and price pressures.

  • Household net worth rose by nearly $13 trillion between the first and second quarter of 2026.
  • The increase was driven overwhelmingly by gains in stock prices, according to the ABA DataBank.
  • The ABA notes labor market momentum is slowing while households face continued price pressures.
  • The ABA flags that growing equity exposure in household wealth leaves consumers more vulnerable to a market downturn.
