Problem with AccountHandler class

I did this code but developer console says "expecting right curly bracket, found catch". I don't find any missing curly bracket in my code. Please help!

​public class AccountHandler {
    
    public static Account insertNewAccount(String AccountName){
        try{  Account acct= new Account(Name=AccountName) ;
        insert acct;
        return acct;
           }
    }
    catch(DmlException e){
        System.debug('A DML exception has occurred: ' +e.getMessage());
        return(NULL)
    }
   
}

Download editors like notepad++ / Sublime text it shows you the bracket matching in your code. You have ended the method before ending the catch statement. 
2) There is no ; after null
3) If there are validation rules / required fields your insert will fail.
4) You cannot catch DML exception unless you modify your code to do the insert differently.
