What Is NACHA Compliance?
The NACHA requires depository financial institutions, third-party service providers, and third-party senders to conduct an annual ACH audit before December 31. This is a part of the NACHA compliance requirements that help ensure the security and integrity of transactions. Compliance audits ensure your institution accomplishes the following:
- You ensure secure transmission and storage of sensitive or personal data.
- You maintain a private storage location for all paper and electronic documents.
- You validate all routing numbers and customer identities.
- You are vigilant about possible fraud and report ACH violations as necessary.
- You have a clearly outlined security policy and promote education for all employees.
