The challenges of the Chief Audit Executive are many in relation to working for and supporting an organisation to achieve its goals, whilst applying a lens of professional skepticism over organisational activities and providing independent feedback and recommendations.

The day-to-day work of CAEs and assurance professionals of applying organizational governance frameworks, charters, policies and regulation requirements against business realities can sometimes put the CAE in the middle of a difficult ethical dilemma.

Ethics06 Ethics: Internal Auditor under Pressure

The recent SOPAC survey has reported around 14% of internal auditors in Australia were sanctioned for unfavourable reports.  This has highlighted the seldomly discussed problem underlying the work of the Internal Auditors.  A recent survey by Deloitte in North America shows a 55% of CAEs were directed to omit or modify their audit findings while 32% were asked to audit low-risk areas. 

On the other hand, the IIA Code of Ethics requires internal auditors to comply with Objectivity and Independence. 

This webinar reflects on some analyses about the issues of internal audit under pressure and examines what the IIA advises.  The objective of the webinar is to bring out the significance of the issue which undermines the internal audit profession.
