SUMMARY:Internal Audit Forum: New Era\, New Role
DESCRIPTION:Grand Rotana Resort & Spa – Sharam El Sheikh – Egypt\, 29 -30 July 2022\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBackground: \nInternal auditing as a concept has changed dramatically throughout time\, with a fast pace evolution especially during and post the pandemic in the last 2 years. \nToday\, instead of focusing only on discovering irregularities and pursing offenders\, internal auditing has become an independent\, objective assurance and consultancy activity designed to add value and improve an organization’s operations and helps accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic\, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management\, control and governance processes. \nInternal auditing as a concept has changed dramatically throughout time\, with a fast pace evolution especially during and post the pandemic in the last 2 years. \nLarge organizations\, such as Banks\, and due to huge number of transactions\, staff as well as the variety and complexity of other operations\, often need to formalize and standardize their policies\, procedures and workflow; and what applies to other departments\, applies to an Internal Audit Function.Therefore\, Internal Audit Standards are considered to be the cornerstone for a quality audit service under a defined framework acknowledged internationally able to efficiently generate a success story for an Internal Audit Activity. \nIn this regards\, the World Union of Arab Bankers is organizing this seminar to shed lights on the new concepts related to internal audit and its role in maintaining transparency and compliance with laws and international standards that contributes to safeguarding thee organizations and help its objectives. WUAB aims to explore the subject of internal audit and improve its role and independence to protect the assets of the organization or the bank\, especially in the light of the recent changes in the international standards of internal audit. \nParticipants: \nChief Audit Executives and Internal Auditors and Internal control departments from banks and financial institutions. Others: Risk Management personnel\, quality assurance\, and similar functions. \nSubjects: \nInternal Audit – Mission\, International Standards & Competency Framework  \n\nModern Concepts related to Internal Audit and its evolving role.\nInternal Audit as a Trusted Advisor – Active Awareness & Consultation Role – Early Involvement in Bank Initiatives / Projects / Committees\nEffective Follow-up.\nQuality Assurance / IIA International Professional Practices framework.\n\nInternal Audit – Effective Partner \n\nOptimizing the Internal Audit relationship with External Auditors\, Compliance\, Risk Management and Legal.\nInternal Audit Function and Executive Management\nAudit Committee Role\, Responsibilities and effective relationship with Internal Audit & Executive Management.\nInternal Audit & Regulators\n\nIT Audit – Increasing Role \n\nIT Governance topics:\n\nGovernance and Management of Enterprise IT\n\n\nFinTech topics: The internal audit roles in reviewing\n\nDigital transformation\nFinTech tools\n\n\nCyber Security topics: The internal audit roles in reviewing\n\nCyber Security\nPrivacy and Data Protection Strategy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBrochure\n\n\n\nRegistration Form\n\n\n\n\n\nPresentations\n\n\n\n\n[rtec-registration-form event=4930] \n\n\n\n \n\n\n                    \n                        \n                        \n                            \n                \n                    \n\n        \n        Location: Sheraton Cairo Hotel – Egypt    \n\n        \n                    \n                    \n\n        \n        Date: November 25 -26\, 2026    \n\n        \n                    \n                    \n\n        \n        Time: 9:00 AM till 3:00 PM    \n\n        \n                    \n                \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n        \n\n\nOverview \n\n\nThe Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) is a joint initiative of five private sector organizations dedicated to providing thought leadership through the development of frameworks and guidance on enterprise risk management\, internal control\, and fraud deterrence. \nInternal audit is being asked to\nsee further\, respond faster and speak with greater authority. Assurance remains fundamental.\nBut in a banking environment increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence\,\ndigital dependencies\, sophisticated fraud\, cyber risk\, regulatory expectations\nand external volatility\, assurance alone is no longer enough. Boards and senior\nmanagement increasingly need internal audit to identify where vulnerabilities\nare developing\, assess whether resilience is real or assumed\, and provide an\nindependent perspective on risks whose speed and complexity are challenging\ntraditional approaches to oversight. This places the Chief Audit\nExecutive at the centre of a significant shift. The question is no longer\nsimply whether internal audit is fulfilling its mandate. It is whether that\nmandate\, its capabilities and its relationship with the boardroom are keeping\npace with the environment in which financial institutions now operate. Against this backdrop\, The\nInternal Audit Forum 2026\, held under the theme “Beyond Assurance: The Next\nAudit Agenda for AI\, Digital Risk\, Resilience and the Future of the CAE\,” will\nbring together senior leaders and professionals from internal audit\, risk\,\ngovernance\, technology and regulatory functions to examine the priorities that\nare reshaping the audit agenda across banks and financial institutions. Over two days\, the Forum will\naddress some of the most consequential questions facing the profession. What\nshould boards expect from their CAEs today? Is internal audit providing\nsufficient foresight? How should audit approach AI when it is simultaneously\ntransforming the bank and the audit function itself? Where does operational\nresilience become most vulnerable across cyber\, cloud and third-party\necosystems? How should institutions respond to deepfakes\, digital fraud\,\ninsider threats and AI-enabled attacks? And as digital identity and eKYC\ncontinue to reshape banking\, how must assurance evolve with them? The agenda extends beyond technology.\nIt will examine governance and ethics\, remuneration risk\, financial resilience\nin volatile conditions\, environmental and social risk within the credit\nlifecycle\, external dependencies beyond traditional outsourcing\, and the impact\nof wider risk developments on the audit universe. It will also look ahead to\nthe decisions CAEs must make as they prepare their 2027 audit plans and build\nthe teams\, skills and judgement that the audit function of 2030 will demand. The Forum is designed not merely\nto examine individual risks\, but to connect them. AI\, cyber risk\, governance\,\nresilience\, third parties\, regulation and talent increasingly intersect\,\nrequiring audit leaders to look beyond traditional boundaries and assess the\ninstitution as a whole. For CAEs and the professionals\nworking alongside them\, the strategic challenge is clear: to preserve the\nindependence and rigour that define internal audit while ensuring that the\nfunction remains relevant to the risks\, technologies and decisions shaping the\nfuture of banking. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n The Internal Audit Forum 2026\nprovides the senior-level platform for that conversation.
