Can You Limit what an Auditor Reviews?

Q. Can I limit what an auditor reviews?
 
A. Federal law permits the administrator of an employee benefit plan to limit an audit when plan assets are held by banks or insurance companies and written certifications are provided by the institutions holding those assets.
 
It may be appropriate for a plan administrator to consult with an accountant, attorney or plan advisor to determine whether limiting the scope of an audit may appropriate.
