DOL Wants More Control Over Plan Audits
PLANSPONSOR; free registration may be required Link to more items from this source
May 30, 2015

"In addition to increased outreach to CPAs and enforcement of audit standards by the EBSA, the report ... recommends that [Congress] [1] amend the [ERISA] definition of 'qualified public accountant' to include additional requirements and qualifications necessary to ensure the quality of plan audits.... [2] repeal the ERISA limited-scope audit exemption and give the [DOL] the authority to define when a limited scope audit would be an acceptable substitute for a full audit.... [3] give the [DOL] authority to establish accounting principles and audit standards to protect the integrity of employee benefit plans and the benefit security of participants and beneficiaries."
