1 Chief Internal Auditor Conference 2017 Building Trust. Making an Impact. 6 January 2017

2 Welcome Peter Astley EMEA Internal Audit Lead Risk Advisory 2

3 Deloitte s Global Chief Audit Executive Survey Evolution or irrelevance? Responses from more than 1,200 Chief Audit Executives (CAEs) spanning over 29 countries and a wide range of industries. Key findings from the survey: Internal Audit needs more impact and influence. CAEs recognize the need for change. Stable Internal Audit budgets may present challenges. Gaps in skills must be addressed. Use of alternative resourcing models will expand. Analytics presents major opportunities. Innovation is important too. Dynamic reporting is poised to increase. Reviews of strategic planning and risk management will increase. Advisory services will expand. 3

4 Internal Audit needs more impact and influence A minority of CAEs believe they have the ability to exert influence over the board of directors, executive team, and other key personnel and make a significant impact within their organisations. Some even believe they have little to no influence or impact. Yet CAEs also believe, correctly, that it will be important to have both in the years ahead. Current impact & influence of Internal Audit 28% 55% 16% 1% Strong Some Little to none Not sure Importance of having impact & influence over the next 3 to 5 years 64% 31% 3% 2% Very important Somewhat important Not important Not sure 4

5 Gaps in skills must be addressed Internal Audit needs to strengthen its skillset if it is to increase its impact and influence within the organisation. CAEs are clearly aware of this: Relatively few are fully satisfied that their groups have the skills and expertise to deliver on stakeholders expectations. Current satisfaction with Internal Audit s capabilities?? 41% 32% 25% 2% Satisfied Somewhat satisfied Not satisfied Not sure 5

6 Innovation is important too To make changes in its approaches and activities, Internal Audit should embrace an innovative mind-set, as well as actual innovations. However, the function is not known for active innovation. Key innovative developments expected to impact Internal Audit: No innovation expected Transformation digital Increasing size of the talent pool Shared IA service Strengthening the bench and succession planning Ability to audit news domains (eg. Quality of Services) Cognitive technologies Collaborative assurance provision in partnership with management Data analytics Culture more specialism Strategic auditing and business impact Predictive analytics Risk anticipation Review of Agile Programs New talent models (describe) Digitization Improving the position of Internal Audit so that it is recognized as a developer of risk management talents for the entire organization Predictive analytics Synergy and integration Expanding assurance activities to HSEC space Strategic co-sourcing Deep subject matter specialists Visualisation 6
