E129: What keeps internal auditors up at night?
Internal auditors could be the ultimate ‘insider outsider’ in financial services.
They are on average 1% of a bank’s staff, and yet they are there to keep the other 99% in check – while balancing new regulations and ongoing threats in rooting out shady operators and financial crime.
No pressure then!
Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Eleanor Streatfield, Head of Internal Audit at Wise, to reveal: What keeps internal auditors up at night?
The pair discuss: How the audit process looks from the inside, the hardest part of the role, and the solutions to ease those sleepless nights!
