Item 5.05 Amendments to the Registrant's Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics.
On December 3, 2014, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (the "Bank") amended and restated its Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers, primarily for the purpose of expanding the number of employees subject to the code of ethics. The amended and restated code of ethics, entitled the "Code of Ethics for Financial Professionals," applies to the Bank's President and Chief Executive Officer (its principal executive officer), the Bank's Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (its principal financial and accounting officer) and certain other management personnel within the Bank's Accounting Department.
The Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers, which applied only to the Bank's President and Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, contained provisions that were designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote: (1) honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; (2) full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosures; (3) compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; (4) the prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons; and (5) accountability for adherence to the code. These provisions are retained in the Code of Ethics for Financial Professionals. In some cases, enhancements were made in order to make the code of ethics more clear and understandable.
The Code of Ethics for Financial Professionals is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 14.1.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
