**Is your 401(k) plan documentation file ready for an audit?**

As a retirement plan sponsor, a fiduciary audit file checklist will help you to compile documents to keep your fiduciary audit file up-to-date and assist with periodic reviews of your plan.

These documents should be readily at hand in the event that a DOL auditor shows up. This becomes easier if the advisor maintains an on-line filing cabinet for these and other plan documents that are also accessible to the plan sponsor.
