Description

Risk Audit would like to draw your attention to our forthcoming course covering the Audit of Financial Control.
A course aimed at auditors examining their organisations’ financial control functions. Traditionally the internal auditor has focused on financial control from the perspective of ensuring the figures are sound. This course looks at the role of financial control in the wider context of management control and explains how internal audit can add value to this field. We provide auditing benchmarks for examining the financial accounting and management and regulatory reporting elements. We also look at the types of key controls necessary to ensure the general ledgers, chart of accounts and other inputs to the financial control function are operating as intended.

Finally the course takes a look at the major developments in the arena of accounting standards.
