MENLO PARK, Calif.,
Oct. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- In the
16th edition of its Internal Auditing Around the
World® profile series, global consulting firm
Protiviti shares findings from in-depth interviews with chief audit
executives of some of the world's most well-known companies. Most
of the interviews took place during the last two weeks of
March 2020 amid a growing wave of
coronavirus lockdowns. Despite the global uncertainty, the report
finds that in cases where internal audit functions were already
well advanced in their embrace of new technologies, tools and
methodologies, leaders believe their teams are positioned to
weather the 'new normal' – and beyond – and help their
organizations in their efforts to transform digitally.
The organizations profiled in the 2020 edition of the study,
titled "The Future Auditor Has Arrived," represent a cross-section
of countries and industries and include Campari Group, Lloyds
Banking Group, Microsoft Corporation, Milaha, Olympus Corporation,
Radobank, Salesforce, SF Express, Starbucks Coffee Company and
others. The study is available for complimentary download here.
"Internal audit functions on the transformation path to
next-generation auditing before the upheaval of the pandemic will
be those who thrive in the long-term and help their companies'
leaders to navigate risk and provide deeper insights in a
post-COVID-19 world," said Brian
Christensen, a Protiviti executive vice president and leader
of the firm's global internal audit and financial advisory
practice. "The organizations in our 2020 report have been able to
use the current, unexpected disruption to demonstrate operational
resiliency for whatever challenges the future may bring."
The new edition of Internal Auditing Around the World asks how
internal audit teams can be transformed to serve the ever-changing
business landscape. The report provides insights into how
high-performing and forward-thinking internal audit teams are
innovating and transforming themselves into agile, multiskilled and
technology-enabled organizations.
Audit leaders from 11 organizations were interviewed and their
experiences are presented as case studies in the book. To access a
