Code of Ethics
We adhere to the Code of Ethics of the Institute of Internal Audit.
The Code of Ethics of the Institute aims to promote a culture of ethics within the internal audit profession.
Definition of Internal AuditingInternal audit is an independent and objective function that gives an organization a degree of assurance on the control of its operations, brings his advice to improve, and helps to create added value. It helps an organization accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach, processes of
risk management, control and corporate governance, and making proposals to enhance their effectiveness.
Given the trust placed in the internal audit to provide objective assurance on the process of corporate governance, risk management and control, it was necessary that the profession adopts such a code.
Code of Ethics extends beyond the definition of Internal Audit to include two essential components:
- Principles that are relevant to the profession and practice of internal auditing;
- Rules of Conduct that describe behavior norms expected of internal auditors. These rules are an aid to the practical implementation of the basic principles and are intended to guide the ethical conduct of internal auditors.
It means "Internal auditors" members of the Institute, the holders of the IIA professional certifications or candidates for these, as well as those providing services within the scope of the Definition of Internal Auditing .
The Code of Ethics applies to both individuals and entities that provide internal audit services.
Any violation of the Code of Ethics by members of the Institute, holders of professional certifications or candidates for IIA thereof, will be assessed and will be processed in accordance with the Constitution of the Institute and Administrative Guidelines. The fact that a particular conduct is not mentioned in the Rules of Conduct does not prevent it from being unacceptable or discreditable and may result in disciplinary action against the person who is guilty.
