Employee Benefit Plan (401k) Audits

Audit requirements for 401(k) and other employee benefit plans are complex — and as regulations evolve, so do your responsibilities. Whether you’re navigating ERISA compliance, managing fiduciary duties, or preparing for your first audit, Frank, Rimerman + Co. delivers the clarity and assurance you need.

Our Approach: Personalized, Practical, Proactive 

Every employee benefit plan is different. We design our audits based on a deep understanding of your plan’s operations, participant demographics, and administrative structure. Our goal is to go beyond compliance — delivering actionable feedback that strengthens internal controls, streamlines processes, and positions your plan to better serve employees.
