An internal audit in UAE is an independent, objective assessment of a company's financial and operational processes and controls. An internal audit aims to help an organization achieve its objectives by evaluating and improving its risk management, governance, and internal control processes.
An internal audit can cover various activities, including financial reporting, compliance with laws and regulations, information technology systems, and operations management. The internal auditor evaluates the company's internal controls, procedures, and processes and provides recommendations for improvement to management.
