Does My Company Need A Retirement Plan Audit?

The Department of Labor generally requires a retirement plan with more than 100 participants to have a retirement plan audit performed once a year. A retirement plan audit must be performed by an independent accounting firm and failing to have an audit performed could result in large fines and penalties for your company.

In addition, the benefits of conducting this audit are potential safeguards for your company. A retirement plan audit may help catch internal errors and protect against fraud and abuse.
