Rest assured? Bridging the internal audit gaps for NZ’s public sector
We surveyed IA leaders from a range of agencies that are navigating the challenges of organisational disruption driven by changes to budgets and resourcing. This represents significant shifts in the risks faced by agencies, increasing the levels of assurance now required. It also means the assurance that controls continue to work is now more important than ever. Yet, expectations remain the same: Be transparent. Be responsible. Be efficient. But cut your resources.
However, there is also a real opportunity for agencies to recalibrate their internal audit functions. This is particularly mission-critical for IA leaders who fulfil roles beyond their internal audit programmes, and who will likely see their workloads grow as budgets are pressured and team members decline.
