The risk-oriented approach should be the basis of accounting and control processes of any economic entity. That is why, it is the risk-oriented approach that should be the basis for formation of the accounting policies and internal control systems of the economic entity. In the corporate structure the risks related to corporate governance are particularly important. Therefore, corporate accounting policy, while expanding its borders, must take into account corporate risks related to inter-group relationships. Through the formation of and disclosure of corporate accounting policy the planning and control of joint activities is implemented, which involves analysis and monitoring of strategic risks. Risk-oriented corporate accounting policies, being the regulator of corporate relationships through the implementation of the managerial function can influence the effectiveness of corporate integration. Corporate accounting policy may be the means of achieving the synergy effect in the enterprise integration by defining and regulating the most efficient forms of interaction of the reproduction process members. The evolution of accounting policies closely associated with the evolution of accounting and reporting, leads to the need to identify the relationship of accounting policies and internal control systems at all levels of corporation government, because it is the accounting policy that determines the intra firm accounting principles and is the regulator of corporate relations at all levels of corporate governance. Monitoring of accounting policy, based on the principle of materiality is key to both the separate legal entity that is the part of the group, and to the entire perimeter of consolidation. Key risks relate to the concept of materiality and correspond to the key issues of the auditing that is relevant in the context of the new requirements of the international auditing standards.

Corporate governance is the cornerstone for the organization, when it comes to effective internal control systems by modern organizations. Over the last 20 years, several business giants have collapsed under the weight of illegalities and frauds, such as Enron, WorldCom, Guinness, Maxwell Group, Barings Bank, etc. The impact of the failure of these organizations on the economies in which they were operating was particularly significant and had a negative impact on those directly or indirectly associated with them. The shareholders, as well as all stakeholders such as suppliers, customers, creditors, employees, and governments of the countries where the above organizations were active, were adversely affected. The failure of the organizations was attributed to the inadequacy of their boards and the lack of organized and effective control mechanisms by their management.

AbstractThis paper examines the causality between fraud and bank performance in Nigeria over the period 2000-2016 for quarterly financial data using Johansen’s Multivariate Cointegration Model and Vector Autoregressive (VAR) Granger Causality analysis. The results show a long-run relationship between the variables. Bank performance was found to be linked to Granger fraud variables and vice versa at 10% significant level. This study reveals that there was a direct causal relationship between bank performance and fraud because increase in fraudulent activities in the banking sector leads to reduction in bank performance. Hence, this study recommends that internal control systems of banks should be strengthened so as to detect and prevent fraud. In this way, bank assets would be protected.
