Understanding the role of internal audit

There are many types of audits and reviews of your business that can be performed. Auditing means ‘to listen’ and in an audit you listen to the business to find out what the needs are.

Systems reviews (flowcharting of systems and systems documentation)
System and operational audits
Internal control documentation and recommendations
