Standards are principle-focused and provide a framework for performing and promoting internal

auditing. The Standards are mandatory requirements consisting of:

Statements of basic requirements for the professional practice of internal auditing and for

evaluating the effectiveness of its performance. The requirements are internationally applicable

at organizational and individual levels.

Interpretations, which clarify terms or concepts within the statements.

It is necessary to consider both the statements and their interpretations to understand and apply the Standards correctly. The Standards employ

terms that have been given specific meanings as noted in the Glossary, which is also part of the Standards. Each month, we’ll list a section from

the Standards to help readers brush up on mandatory requirements for internal auditors.

2030 – Resource Management: The chief audit executive must ensure that internal audit resources are appropriate, sufficient, and effectively

deployed to achieve the approved plan.

2040 – Policies and Procedures: The chief audit executive must establish policies and procedures to guide the internal audit activity.

2050 – Coordination: The chief audit executive should share information and coordinate activities with other internal and external providers of

assurance and consulting services to ensure proper coverage and minimize duplication of efforts.
