Simplifying 401(k) Compliance for You

Background:  

MGO’s clients need a trusted partner to handle their 401(k) plan audits. We provide cost-effective, efficient service while offering insights into broader financial knowledge and regulatory complexities unique to each client’s business model. Our clients span industries ranging from manufacturing, technology, and apparel to food and beverage, professional services, and more. 


Challenge:  

When a company has 100 or more participants with balances in a 401(k) plan, it requires a 401(k) audit. A company needs an employee benefit plan audit provider that understands its unique business model and can help them navigate evolving regulatory requirements while maintaining transparency for employees and stakeholders. This calls for a nuanced understanding of employee classification, contribution eligibility, and plan participation rules.  

Additionally, with federal regulations governing employee benefit plans constantly evolving, a company needs an auditor with deep experience in ERISA, IRS, and DOL compliance standards for full regulatory adherence.

When it comes to 401(k) audits, efficiency is key. By leveraging extensive industry knowledge and a thorough methodology, our team provides a seamless 401(k) audit experience that meets compliance and financial reporting requirements.  

Our risk-based approach addresses the complexities of a company’s diverse workforce and definitions of compensation — supporting proper classification and compliance with evolving ERISA, IRS, and DOL regulations. This approach allows us to provide cost-effective 401(k) audits to our clients.

Our efficient approach provides a thorough and timely 401(k) audit, strengthening a company’s financial oversight and reinforcing trust among employees and stakeholders. By delivering a compliance-focused 401(k) audit, we help companies navigate complex regulatory compliance with confidence.
