Description

This webinar will prepare you for changes under Nacha Rules 2026, & show how to build an effective compliance roadmap & implement it.

Course Overview

The 2026 Nacha Rules introduce heightened risk management expectations across the ACH Network, with a strong emphasis on preventing fraud related to impersonation, false pretenses, and vendor payment redirection.

If you’re responsible for payments, treasury operations, accounts payable, vendor onboarding, or compliance, these changes require immediate attention. Nacha is raising the bar on risk-based monitoring and documented controls, and banks (ODFIs) will increasingly expect Originators and Third-Party Service Providers (TPSPs) to demonstrate preparedness well ahead of the compliance deadlines.

This in-depth webinar covers the most recent and upcoming ACH rule changes through 2026. We’ll break down new fraud monitoring requirements, expanded ODFI and RDFI responsibilities, and updates to returns and funds availability. You’ll leave with a clear, actionable plan to support compliance and implementation.

Learning Objectives

• Understand what the 2026 Nacha Rules require and what’s driving these changes
• Learn how to move from basic, manual checks to more advanced fraud prevention strategies
• Review real-world fraud scenarios, what went wrong, and how they could have been prevented.

Areas Covered
