The International Federation of Accountants’
(IFAC) Professional Accountants in Business (PAIB) committee has
launched a survey to evaluate the need to align risk management and
internal control guidelines in a global context.
The PAIB committee collaborated with the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) to produce the
survey.
The survey intends to:
- Determine the strengths and weaknesses of existing risk
management and internal control systems around the world; - Investigate the role of risk management and internal control
guidelines; and, - Ascertain the needs for international alignment among the
various national guidelines that are already in place.
Responses are being sought by 10 July
2010.
