Solution
Is there an internal audit function within your organisation? What is its role and how do you
view it?
ANSWER: YES, my organisation has an internal audit function. My company is small; and a
small business simply cannot afford employee fraud, government fine or a waste. Thus,
establishment of an internal audit function provides a vital step in the growth of a small
organisation. It'role ncludes reviewing, assessment, and reporting the condition of the internal
controls in a company thus is beneficial in improvement and maintenance of the internal controls
in the company. It targets to reduce the opportunity for the fraudster, and also the management
will have no or little opportunity to conduct fraud in the company. Moreover is helpful in
findings the weaknesses and giving recommendations for the improvement in the internal
controls.
In my views internal audit function is important to my organisation as protect and enhance
organisational value by providing risk-based and objective assurance, insight and advice.
