How can Executive Boards and Directors ascertain whether they are being given the correct and full information, whether the delegated tasks are carried out as agreed, whether responsibilities are being assumed as delegated, and whether the policies they originally outlined or approved are in fact effective? Are they given the full picture when it comes to risky reorganizational projects or system-development processes?

Capable auditors, reliable financial reports and ceremonial ‘In Control Statements’ often fail to provide the necessary answers to this type of questions. An internal audit, on the other hand, has proven to be an excellent and well-tested instrument. But only the very large organizations have the manpower to set up these investigations, to appoint the appropriately-qualified people and to organize, carry out and assess them professionally. INSTIFIN can carry out these internal audits for less sizeable organizations externally. In fact, we can review the audit organization (of choice), set up audits, organize audits, perform audits, train auditors and assess the results of these audits, the audit plan or the auditors’ activities on behalf of the management and/or the company’s supervisory board.
