We have products across the range of lending in terms of size and complexity including digital offerings and the organisation uses multiple systems each with its nuances of complexity and evolution like SAP A3S Data ware house etc. The business is increasingly dependent on the technology infusions and the audit risk monitoring and operational risk role is required to be on top of the system deficiencies and strengths and to be able to conduct assessments of new systems and / or new products launched.

The IFC / ICFR framework as is applicable for the organisation places a lot of weight on both the controls that are automated (i.e. systems driven) and the overall governance of Information Technology General Controls. The coverage for Digital business for instance is a key example of the vast enhancement of coverage of internal audit. Also the NHB draft circular on IT and Information Security will be placing several enhanced responsibilities on the Internal Audit framework including creating a specific Info-sec audit framework.

Key Challenges :

The range necessitates the internal audit role to be sufficiently capable of dealing with the diversity of processes collaborating with the management governance hierarchy and the kinds of risk specific to each line of business and systems in use. The types of customers and the nuances of the documentation related to each are inherent challenges to absorb and overcome in normal course of work.

The role is critical to ensuring the entire set of RCMs (Risk Control Matrices) are refreshed every year with intensive engagement with the auditor / consultant and the respective functions and further reviewed by the statutory auditor. Further the Operational Risk Management Framework is a new introduction in the entity and carries significant challenges of implementation ranging from functions prioritization resourcing understanding convergence of objectives system implementation testing oversight intensive follow-up etc.
