Beyond Compliance: How alliantTalent Transforms EBP Audits

Employee Benefit Plan audits aren’t just about checking boxes—they’re about ensuring financial security for employees while maintaining regulatory compliance for employers. At alliantTalent, we understand this balance requires more than just technical knowledge; it demands partnership and strategic vision.

The EBP landscape is constantly evolving, with significant changes for the 2024 plan year through the Secure 2.0 Act, updated IRS limits, new FinREC guidance, and Form 5500 modifications. While most firms focus solely on compliance, we see these changes not as regulatory hurdles but as opportunities to strengthen your benefit plans and provide strategic value.

Our recent webinar, “Essential EBP Audit Updates for Financial Professionals,” addressed these important shifts. Our expert panel provided actionable insights on:

  • Secure 2.0 Act Updates and implementation requirements
  • New IRS Limits for 2024 plan year
  • FinREC Guidance on revenue sharing arrangements
  • FASB Updates affecting Employee Benefit Plans
  • Form 5500 Changes for the 2024 plan year
  • DOL Updates, including revised administrative penalties
  • Additional audit considerations, including IRS regulations
