L'Association canadienne des prêteurs sur salaire (ACPS) n'est pas une association typique puisqu'elle réclame une réglementation plutôt que de s'y opposer. L'Association est considérée comme un chef de file en matière de pratiques exemplaires et de protection des consommateurs. Le mandat de l'Association est de travailler avec les gouvernements afin d'élaborer un cadre de réglementation national qui puisse assurer la rentabilité de l'industrie tout en protégeant les consommateurs. 2, record 2, French, - Association%20canadienne%20des%20pr%C3%AAteurs%20sur%20salaire

"They endeavour to maintain a holistic model of service that emphasizes the importance of stakeholders. A high standard of professional competence is inscribed in the AESN's code of ethics.
