The corporate spotlight has turned onto Chief Internal Auditors, and the audit function’s influence now rests on relationships as much as findings — the CIA’s standing with key stakeholders carries the reputation of the whole function. This programme addresses both halves of the job. It gives practical guidance for enhancing the Chief Internal Auditor’s position and profile, and the reputation and performance of the team. And it builds the technical range modern bank audit demands: derivatives, hedging, payment systems, and how to audit credit and market risk, the dealing room, clearing services, trade finance, private banking, and retail and corporate banking operations.

Frequently asked
Which banking functions does the programme teach you to audit?
The technical range covers auditing credit and market risk, the dealing room, clearing services, the trade finance function, the private banking department, and retail and corporate banking operations — grounded in the key elements of modern banking, including derivatives, hedging and payment systems and their effects on the firm.
Does the programme address the Chief Internal Auditor’s standing as well as technique?
Yes — both halves of the job. Alongside the technical modules, it gives practical guidance for enhancing the Chief Internal Auditor’s position and profile, managing the stakeholder relationships that carry the function’s reputation, and raising the reputation and performance of the audit team itself.
How is the programme delivered, and can it run in-house?
Delivery is available in English and French, on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request; fees and quotations are provided on enquiry. An in-house edition tailored to your institution is available — a strong option for audit departments wanting the whole team to cover the same banking functions together.
