Power Hour-Nacha’s Automated Proof-of-Audit Program: What You Need to Know

Join us for this timely webinar to discover how Nacha is modernizing its compliance verification process, moving away from decade-old manual procedures to streamlined automation. Learn why this shift is happening and what it means for your institution's compliance obligations.

As of October 2025, the scope of audit verification has expanded dramatically. Instead of approximately 250 financial institutions and Third-Party Senders selected quarterly, Nacha will now contact over 1,100 participants. With plans to reach every institution in the network within three years, understand where your organization fits in this expanded verification timeline.

Gain clarity on the critical steps your team must take now to ensure seamless compliance when your institution receives its audit request. Learn best practices for organizing documentation, designating responsible parties, and establishing internal processes to meet Nacha's requirements.
