What is Internal Audit? Why is it important?
Internal audit is an objective evaluation of an organisation’s internal controls, risk mitigation plan, governance model, and financial statement to ensure its accountability with the stakeholders. It involves the verification of financial statements, scrutinising internal control lapses and weaknesses, identifying areas of risk, and preventing fraud.
Beyond financial verification, it also involves analysing nonfinancial information and transactions to ensure accuracy and compliance with organisational policies and operational processes. Mandated by the Companies Act, 2013, internal audit entails continuous and critical assessment with a disciplined approach to evaluating and improving the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.
Types of Internal Audit
Financial Audits
Conducting an in-depth and systematic evaluation of internal control mechanisms and reporting systems pertaining to financial reporting processes and preparation of financial statements.
Process Audits
A razor-sharp focus on internal controls of key processes, procedures, or systems to enhance productivity, efficiency, and efficacy, ensuring they align with organisational goals.
Compliance audits
A structured assessment to measure and ensure that a process, system, or area complies with policies, plans, procedures, applicable laws, regulations, contracts, or other mandates and requirements.

Further, it recommends a plan of action to streamline workflows, resulting in cost cuts and improved resource utilisation for increased productivity.
Regulatory Compliance & Savings on Penalty
More than being a legal obligation, Financial Governance and Compliance, Business Compliance Audit, Corporate Compliance and Risk Management are symbolic of ethical practices and governance. Regular Governance Risk and Compliance Framework Audits ensure that policies and procedures adhere to laws and industry regulations. An effective internal audit is able to nail down regulatory non-compliances well in advance and implement corrective measures effectively to stay aligned and comply with dynamic regulatory frameworks.
