The changes are effective from 1 January

IIA Global called on members to provide feedback on proposed changes to the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing to meet the challenges of today’s evolving business environment. During the 90-day consultation from February to May 2016 a total of 1,144 responses were received from individuals and organisations around the world.
The proposed Standards were approved and the update, effective January 1, 2017, includes:
Two new standards, pertaining to:

• The reality that CAEs are sometimes asked to take on risk management, compliance, or other roles beyond internal auditing.
• The potential objectivity-impairing situation in which an internal audit activity performs an assurance engagement after previously consulting in the area.

Alignment of the Standards to the Core Principles:

• Modifications primarily focus on the following two Core Principles, “Aligns with the strategies, objectives, and risks of the organisation,” and “Is insightful, proactive, and future-focused.”

Updates to existing Standards:

• Communications: Summarise in one standard the required communications from the CAE to the board and senior management.
• QAIP: An enhanced annual requirement for CAEs to report on their quality assurance and improvement program and current level of conformance.
