After an unprecedented three years of global disruption, North American organizations seek closer collaboration with stakeholders to get in front of the fast-moving risk landscape. Internal audit leaders often act as advisors to the board and management on mission-critical projects and retool audit methodologies to better manage the risks ahead.
The Internal Audit Foundation’s inaugural Risk in Focus 2024: North America report, sponsored by AuditBoard, provides practical, data-driven research to help internal auditors and their stakeholders understand this evolving risk environment and prepare audit plans for the year ahead.
The IIA surveyed 442 North American and Canadian CAEs and directors to identify current and emerging risks for each region, followed by roundtables and interviews to discover leading practices for internal auditors.
