National Association of State Auditors, Comptrollers and Treasurers


The National Association of State Auditors, Comptrollers and Treasurers is an American organization for officials who manage the finances of state governments.
NASACT's members include auditors, comptrollers and treasurers from the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories. NASACT is headquartered in Lexington, Kentucky, and has a second office in Washington, DC.
NASACT :
NASACT originated in Washington, D.C. in 1915. At that time, a group of state auditors and comptrollers came together and decided to institute an annual meeting for state governmental finance officials. Thus, NASACT's technical network of government finance professionals
was born.
Since the 1970s, NASACT has actively expanded its role as a representative of state interests in financial management by providing leadership and training to meet the increasingly complex challenges faced by state governments. Although NASACT has a major interest in national issues, it does not engage in any partisan political activity and uses no staff or organizational resources to support any such activity.
NASACT also manages two secretariats: the National State Auditors Association and the National Association of State Comptrollers.
Both secretariats are included under NASACT's budget and use staff hired by NASACT.
