Internal Audit & Forensic Investigations

Internal audit and forensic investigations are critical components of risk management and governance processes within organizations. Internal audit involves independent and objective assessments of internal controls, processes, and operations to provide assurance on the effectiveness of risk management, governance, and control processes. Internal auditors evaluate compliance with policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements, identify areas of weakness or vulnerability, and recommend improvements to enhance organizational performance and integrity. On the other hand, forensic investigations focus on uncovering and resolving instances of fraud, misconduct, or other irregularities within the organization.
