INTERNAL AUDITING ASSIGNMENT
OFFER INSIGHT AND ADVICE – There are times when internal auditors’ expertise,
knowledge of controls, and broad perspective of the organization make them ideal candidates
for consulting on a project to ensure that risks are considered and controls are built into a
process on the front-end (e.g., mergers and acquisitions, new technology implementation).
Internal auditors may offer insight regarding strategic risks and advice, though management
must maintain ultimate responsibility for the processes in their area. EVALUATE RISKS –
Risks are everywhere (natural disasters, loss of key suppliers, reputation damage, inefficient
operations, fraud, lawsuits, policy violations, regulatory compliance, theft, etc.). It’s the
internal auditor’s job to assess the significance of the organization’s many risks and the
effectiveness of risk management efforts, communicate these to management and the board,
and develop recommendations to improve risk management. ASSESS CONTROLS – Internal
auditors evaluate control efficiency and effectiveness and provide management and the board
assurance that the controls in place are adequate to respond to the risks that threaten the
organization. ENSURE ACCURACY – Internal auditors ensure financial statement accuracy.
They examine the reliability and integrity of financial and operational information. IMPROVE
OPERATIONS – With a solid understanding of the organization’s objectives, internal auditors
examine operations to determine whether they are efficient and effective. PROMOTE ETHICS
– Professional internal auditors agree to abide by a Code of Ethics that upholds the principles
of integrity, objectivity, confidentiality, and competency. They raise red flags when they
discover improper conduct.
and authority to conduct audits and investigate possible fraudulent behavior throughout the
organization. COMMUNICATE RESULTS – After auditing a particular area, internal auditors
report their findings and recommend appropriate courses of action.
