An Employee Benefit Plan audit requires a specialized team of experienced professionals, not audit generalists

Our Employee Benefit Plan audit team audits plans of privately held companies and nonprofit organizations, performing audits of single employer, multi-employer, defined contribution, defined benefit, health and welfare, and employee stock ownership plans.

Our experienced auditors will also provide comments relating to internal control or other operational issues that may be identified during the audit. We also give feedback on how to address testing exceptions and improve the operations of your plan. Finally, we will identify any potential issues that might affect the complete fulfillment of your fiduciary responsibilities.

Understand Your Fiduciary Responsibility

While you may not yet be required to have an Employee Benefit Plan (EBP) audit, your fiduciary responsibility is the same. New fee disclosure regulations and recent court cases make it more important than ever to have an independent review of your company’s plan. Companies are losing large lawsuits when fiduciary responsibilities are neglected. Brady Ware can educate you so you can fulfill all of your duties.

Nearly all of our clients undergoing their first EBP audit have had operational issues that we helped them rectify. Along with identifying problem areas, we also provide:

  • Information regarding your complete fiduciary responsibilities
  • A review of your plan documents and a comparison to current plan operations
  • Testing of your current plan operations
