Risk management is not the responsibility of an individual function it is the responsibility of the organization as a whole. Recent Corporate governance failures and frauds have been observed due to lack of responsibility, clarity and policy and procedures.

Ever-increasing compliances and monitoring by regulators and other stakeholders have made it obligatory for the companies to exhibit the existence of farsighted business strategies, effective & efficient controls, and proper accountability. Failure to keep up with the ever-evolving business environment and risks could hamper the brand image and existence.

Establishments should be watchful about the risks presented by both internal and external environments. For example, a vendor who fails to meet the commitment, or who does not align with the company’s ethical practices, can have significant implications financially or otherwise. Considering such risks, the scope of internal audit function is increasing from purely financial & compliance review to a more tactical function that assesses the risk profile for emerging risks and tries to read into the pattern of such risk as it impacts the operations of the business.
