This research is conducted to examine the relationship between components of risk assessment, environmental control and control activities of internal control system and the effectiveness of the audit program in Vietnamese firms. Data were collected by sending questionnaires to management, internal auditors, and accountants of Vietnam firms and feedback of 87 responses. By testing Cronbach’s Alpha, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Analysis of Variables (ANOVA), the results show that control environment, risk assessment and control activities contribute significantly to an effective audit program. These results indicate that Vietnamese firms lack required experiences to cope with the current instruments of internal control assessment.

This chapter aims to depict the role of internal audit in Turkish capital markets by comparing the internal audit structure and its role in detecting fraud in financial institutions and developing a framework for assessing fraud risk in intermediary institutions. The newly constructed regulations concerning banks, intermediary institutions, and portfolio management companies are compared to a global benchmark by using a conceptual and descriptive approach. According to the results of this comparison, it is clear that Turkish legislation needs to be improved in critical areas. “Integrity” should be incorporated as a founding concept of the internal audit function. Certification of internal auditors needs to be encouraged, and internal audit standards need to be adapted. As a result, a fraud risk assessment template influenced by the new regulatory framework is developed for intermediary institutions.

The reaserch method used is a qualitative descriptive method with a phenomenological approach in PD.BPR Bank Salatiga. Risk analysis mapping will be synchronized with possible events that have occurred so that the role of the internal auditors is known in assessing and resolving the risks that accur. From the risk analysis and findings, it was found that the role of the internal auditor in assessing and resolving the risks that occurred was limited to those who handled when the problems that occurred could not be resolved by the parties concerned.

Past studies focused on the role of internal auditors in fraud prevention and internal auditing in relation to good corporate governance and did not explore risk assessment by internal auditor for effectiveness in an organisation with the view to prevent corporate failure. This study investigated the effect of risk assessment by internal auditor on effectiveness of listed companies in Nigeria. The study adopted a survey research design. The population of the study consisted of 24 companies selected from the eleven industrial sub-sectors of the 161 listed companies on Nigerian Stock Exchange as at 30th November, 2019. The sample frame is 5012 and sample size of 501 (comprising 401 internal auditors and 100 top management staff) representing 10% of the population. Structured questionnaire with a five point Likert – scale was administered with 87.43% response rate. Random sampling technique was adopted in the selection of the 24 companies with each chosen company representing each sector. The research instrument was subjected to content validity and test and re-test method of reliability which yield Cronbach alpha value of 0.798. Result indicated that risk assessment (RA) by internal auditors has positive effect on effectiveness (EFFTV) of listed companies in Nigeria with β = 0.194, t (438) = 9.827, p<0.05. F-Statistics of 12.653; Adjusted R2 = 0.051 with p – value of 0.000 which is statistically significant at p < 0.05. Therefore, companies’ management are advised to strengthen the internal auditors in the assessment of risk that might impact on the effectiveness of an organisation to be able to avert organisational emerging risk.

The Relationship

The increasing number of recent fraud cases involving the board of directors and top management in cooperative societies has raised concerns about the effectiveness of internal control systems (ICS) in these organizations. This chapter aims to examine the relationship between the effectiveness of the ICS and the likelihood of fraud occurrence by focusing on the control environment, risk assessment, and monitoring activities of cooperative societies in Malaysia. The results showed that the effectiveness of the control environment, risk assessment, and monitoring had no significant relationship with the likelihood of fraud occurrence in these organizations. However, this does not necessarily mean that the fraud risk is not an emerging issue. The study proposes that the internal auditors and audit committee oversee a pro-active fraud prevention check-up, as suggested by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), which is to be implemented in co-operative societies to assess how vulnerable the organizations are to fraud.
