Why Do We Need Audit?
Audit is crucial as it ensures that the business’s financial records remain correct and in compliance with the updated laws and rules. This process is executed by the auditors to analyze the correctness of the business’s financial records.
Internal Audit
Internal audit focuses on enterprise risk management functions, security processes, and regulatory compliance among other departments. And when it comes to an internal audit, Internal auditors form a company’s financial watchdogs. They examine the company’s financial docs and review the operational procedures.
Internal auditors look for discrepancies between operational processes and what those processes are designed to do. And if such discrepancies are found, they advise the senior management for improvement.
So an internal audit is essentially a preemptive maneuver to maintain operational efficiency and financial reliability and to safeguard assets.
External Audit
External audit offers impartiality that the internal audit team can’t. It reinforces the credibility of a company’s account statements and general financial health. This type of audit can also incorporate training for the internal audit team.
External auditors review the company’s financial information and report on various findings. They are responsible for investigating financial statements for fraud and errors, carrying out audits on operations, reporting on different findings, and giving useful recommendations.
External auditors also identify areas of non-compliance and issues with fraud within the organization. Especially when it comes to SSM, where audited financial statements are required to be submitted to SSM annually.
