Description
The Institute of Internal Auditors has developed the following definition:

It helps an organisation accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes.
Your eGuide is fully cross-referenced to the IIA’s 2017 International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) and has one simple aim:
