Risk Based Internal Auditing (RBIA)



2-day Comprehensive Training Workshop – Stanley Epstein, Operational Risk & Back Office Specialist

Coming soon.. Please contact COMPLIANCE ONLINE customer care for new schedule


The Institute of Internal Auditors defines Risk Based Internal Auditing (RBIA) as a methodology that links internal auditing to an organization’s overall risk management framework. RBIA allows internal audit to provide assurance to the board that risk management processes are managing risks effectively, in relation to the risk appetite.

But every organization is different. There are different attitudes to risk, different management and organizational structures, different processes and procedures, and the need to subscribe to and comply with different conventions and regulations. Experienced internal auditors need to adapt these ideas to the structures, processes and language of their organization in order to implement RBIA.

Implemented correctly, RBIA offers tremendous advantages to the organization. RBIA allows internal audit to provide the Board of Directors with the assurance that it needs.

This intensive 2-day course is all about RBIA, what it is, how it differs from the conventional internal audit and most importantly of all how it may be planned and implemented within the organization.

Why the Risk Based Internal Audit is so important


For many years Internal Audit considered itself as being solely involved in the controls and processes as they relate to the financial transactions of the firm. Often the internal audit function was considered as part of the review and inspection process in the business. In a way internal auditors often saw themselves and in-house versions of the external variety.

Internal audit did not start out that way. Years ago when I formally studied the subject at university the internal audit ‘bible’ was ‘The Practice of Modern Internal Auditing’ by Lawrence B. Sawer (published by the Institute of Internal Auditors, Inc. originally in 1973). This highly knowledgeable tome of almost 900 pages covered the full ambit of internal auditing in beautiful detail, with dozens of example of checklists and working specimens. These were examples of day-to-day operational risks across all sorts of industries. A small sample ranges from the audit of a highway transport department (covering equipment maintenance, vehicle dispatching, fuel, parts and repair services and general administration) to control and compliance over a range of branches at a major bank. I could go on-and-on, but I guess that you get the picture.

BNP Fine Spotlights Banks’ Need for In-House Police Force


From Bloomberg

‘ “It’s actually a very hot market right now,” said Mike Roemer, who became head of compliance at London-based Barclays Plc (BARC) in January. Today the role is seen “as an integral part of how companies manage the overall risk of the organization,” he said.

After the U.S. extracted almost $12 billion in fines in settlements with France’s BNP Paribas SA (BNP) and Zurich-based Credit Suisse Group AG (CSGN) since May, European firms say they’re overhauling culture and boosting pay for compliance staff faster than for revenue-earning bankers. Still lawyers question whether this will be enough to deter future misdeeds as authorities around the world probe alleged manipulation of interest rate, foreign exchange and gold benchmarks.’
