Research in behavioral decision making suggests that internal auditors who are involved in the design of a particular internal control system may be reluctant to find fault with the system, and in turn, their objectivity may be impaired. The purpose of our study was to test this assertion. We found, contrary to the assertion, that internal auditors who participated in the design of a particular system were able to maintain their objectivity.

This paper proposes a measure of disclosure of internal control of credit risk and explores the extent to which this disclosure improves the performance of Tunisian listed banks. We use a self-constructed disclosure index from content analysis. From regressing panel data applied on a sample of 11 listed Tunisian banks during the period from 2007 to 2017, we find that disclosure of Internal Control System of Credit Risk (DICSCR) improves the performance of banks through the implementation of methods and procedures for controlling credit risk. Moreover, the results show that the interactions between DICSCR and the audit committee, the risk committee, and the internal auditor enhance the performance of the banks. Constructing a measure of disclosure inherent to the internal control system of credit risk allows investors and depositors to make relevant decisions, leads to better understanding the level of risk when controlling the bank by internal auditors and external auditors as well. It provides the Central Bank with a useful tool for evaluating the credit risk of the banks.

ABSTRACT Fraud detection is one of the key components of an internal control system that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding reliable financial statements, effective and efficient operations, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and safeguarding of assets (AICPA 2002; Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission 1992). Practically, however, it is challenging to determine what should be investigated among myriads of a company's transactions, most of which are normal and/or free from material error. Limited human resources and cost constraints are major barriers to fraud detection in practice. This study proposes a multi-step fraud detection model that screens transactions at various levels, which leads to a manageable number of transactions that internal auditors can examine. To that end, a broad screening criterion is applied at the highest level, while more detailed criteria are used at the lowest level. This study provides an example of development of a practicable fraud detection model.
