The NACHA (National Automated Clearing House Association) requires credit unions to have an ACH (Automated Clearing House) Audit each year. Because the new NACHA regulations require greater coverage than previously, it is essential that every credit union retain a qualified and experienced auditor to perform its annual ACH Audit. Our firm has performed ACH Audits for credit unions for more than 10 years. Our professional staff has the experience necessary to perform a comprehensive and efficient ACH Audit at affordable rates. In fact, we can perform your credit union's ACH Audit during the annual Opinion or Agreed-Upon Procedures Audit, saving the credit union time and money! In addition to the ACH Audit, our certified public accountants provide a full range of services specifically tailored for credit unions.
