“Internal Auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organization’s operations. It helps an organization accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes” (IIA - Institute of Internal Auditors).

No doubt that in today’s fast moving volatile business environment an IA function constantly needs to review its capabilities to provide value and meet stakeholder’s expectations. While the purpose for the IA function fundamentally has not changed over the past years the function’s methodologies as well as the required skills of the auditors periodically need to be reviewed, redesigned and adjusted in order to respond accurately to the rapid changing business environment as well as risks and opportunities the organization is confronted with.
