The book explains the practical basics of internal auditing, with an extra view on compliance. The legal section deals with essential legal issues of both corporate functions. The operational part is oriented towards the typical internal audit tasks and processes in the private and public sector, taking the tasks of compliance into account. The focus is on a pragmatic, practical presentation, explanation and on the implementation of the international professional practices (IIA IPPF) and generally accepted best practices of internal auditing.
The work provides a sound overview of the fundamentals and origins of compliance and internal auditing/assurance work - refreshingly going beyond the otherwise purely legal framework. The reference to current issues, combined with a direct and frank examination of errors and weaknesses in the corporate compliance system, make the book well worth reading.
