SERVICES
IS Audit and Compliance
(Internal & External)
Maximising the
value and effectiveness of the internal audit
function requires an understanding of an
organisation's objectives, risks, risk
management priorities, regulatory environment,
and the diverse needs of critical stakeholders
including executive management, the board,
employees, and shareholders. Ultimately, these
needs determine the risk profile of the
organisation and the strategic focus,
organisation, resources and practices required
of its internal audit department.
