Your views count – help us to develop and inform the future of internal audit. Our annual Risk in Focus survey is now open, and your contribution is vital.

What are the most pressing risks to your organisation today? And what do you see on the horizon?

Internal auditors across the world are readjusting their plans. In such uncertain times, we need your help to understand what has changed for you and your business, and the biggest risks you see ahead. Sharing our knowledge will give us the power to mitigate the threats we all face.

The new Global Standards, effective from January 2025, now include a requirement for internal audit functions to have a defined strategic long-term plan. This survey analyses the views of CAEs from across Europe on the risk’s organisations are likely to be facing in that time frame, and therefore provides a solid benchmark to assist in this new requirement.

Your feedback will be analysed with findings from 20 institutes of internal audit across the continent. It will chart the changing risk landscape across borders and will reveal the emerging risks that CAEs believe should appear on internal audit’s radar in future.

The findings will be published in our Risk in Focus 2025 report in September and will support internal audit functions as they shape their plans for the year ahead. The survey closes on Monday 1 April 2024.

Make your views count by filling in the survey here.

Please note, that the survey is anonymous, takes less than 4 minutes and should be completed only by Chief Audit Executives / Heads of Internal Audit.

Thank you for your support.
