À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Definitive guidance on implementing and developing the internal audit function.

As a profession, internal audit sits somewhere between having a low profile that is barely mentioned in governance regulations, through to making a key contribution to better corporate transparency by improving how risk is perceived and addressed. A low-key approach has the danger that the value of internal audit may be overlooked, while a higher profile creates greater expectations which must be fully met as auditors reach out towards a new, more challenging role.
