1 Heads of Internal Audit Service Benchmarking Report Internal Audit Resources 2010 Introduction This report contains an analysis of results for the Heads of Internal Audit Service survey entitled: Internal Audit Resources The survey looks at the way Heads of Internal Audit resource their departments to provide information to managers who may be reviewing the size of an internal audit team, the mix of qualification and experience and the extent to which additional resources need to be bought in. The survey partially repeats a survey carried out in 2008 and where possible we have compared results. The results include answers from 52 members of the Heads of Internal Audit Service who completed the survey in the 14 day period from Thursday, 6 May 2010 to Thursday, 20. Responses have come from a broad cross section of private and public sector organisations. The largest grouping (35% of respondents) is that of organisations with annual turnover between 501m and 1bn. Reporting lines and the size of Internal Audit Departments The survey informs us that for management and administrative purposes half of Heads of Internal Audit report to the Chief Financial Officer, while a quarter report to the Chief Executive. Other reporting lines for the remaining 25% include Company Secretary, Head of Governance and Chief Risk Officer. The results regarding the size of Internal Audit Departments have come as something of a surprise. As the chart below shows, the size of some internal audit departments has increased in the past year even though the economy is in recession. In total 10% of Internal Audit Departments have grown, with the main movement in departments of 1 to 4 full time equivalents (FTEs) increasing to 5 to 9 FTEs. Only 4% of Internal Audit Departments surveyed have experienced a decrease with the vast majority remaining the same. Internal audit full time equivalents Number of respondents FTEs this time last year FTEs now 1 to 4 5 to 9 10 to to to or more Department size
2 It would seem this growth is likely to continue as 27% of respondents also informed us they envisage an increase in the size of their department during the year ahead. Analysis shows that this will occur across all department sizes but it is interesting to note that 6 of the 14 respondents who predict an increase operate within the insurance sector. The precise reason for this is unknown but we speculate that this may be due to the impact of Solvency II as most of these respondents said that the reason for the change will be due to the development of risk management in their organisation. The majority of small Internal Audit Departments, those between 1 and 4 FTEs, rely on part time internal auditors with 19 of the 23 respondents in this grouping having a part time contingent. The only other reported use of part time staff exists in the 5 to 9 FTEs group with 3 of the 19 Internal Audit Departments having a part time staff. Resourcing Internal Audit Plans The number of days and individual audits needed to complete an Internal Audit Plan varies considerably between organisations, private and public. The table below provides an indication of the range of days and audits for each of the team size groupings. Size of internal audit department Lowest number of days allocated to the plan Highest number of days allocated to the plan Mode of days allocated to the plan 1 to to to to Size of internal audit department Lowest number of audits Highest number of audits Mode of number of audits 1 to to to to There is no clear pattern between the size of the Internal Audit Department and the number of days or audits set out in the Internal Audit Plan. Equally the size and turnover of the organisation does not seem to determine the size of the Internal Audit Department. For example within the largest turnover grouping, 501m to 1bn, the number of days allocated to the plan varies between 200 and 1600 internal audit days with a variation of audits between 14 and 110. In practice there must be a range of factors that have a bearing on the size of Internal Audit Departments. This might include the number of business units, geographical spread, risk profile, stakeholder expectations, the need for specialist audit skills and the type and nature of operations. Nevertheless, we have highlighted the days and audits that occur most often for each grouping in the mode column of the table. However, we suggest that these figures be treated with a high degree of caution and should not be regarded as benchmarks. There are also variations in the amount of time that each internal audit team devotes to the organisation s risks, as shown in the chart below. Page 2
3 The % of Internal Audit time devoted to the organisation's risks Above 75% Betw een 51 and 75% Betw een 26 and 50% Betw een 1 and 25% Don't Know Number of Internal Audit Departments Qualifications and experience The results show that Internal Audit Departments rely upon a combination of the Institute s professional qualifications and professional accountancy qualifications. Between 25 and 50% of internal audit staff hold an IIA qualification. This is similar to the results from The survey also highlights a broad range of qualifications and practical experience among internal auditors, which includes working knowledge of information security, finance, governance, project management business continuity, fraud, taxation, construction and procurement. Despite this nearly 60% of all Internal Audit Departments bring in additional resources to complete their Internal Audit Plans. Overall this is 10% lower than the level recorded in the 2008 survey. We have prepared a table, below, comparing 2008 and 2010 results over the main subject areas where additional resources are required. Taxation is the only subject area higher in Additional resources acquired by internal audit departments Information security 49% 36% Taxation 13% 19% Finance 20% 15% Health, safety and environment 11% 11% Major projects 15% 9% Business continuity 8% 7% Telecommunications 5% 5% Construction and procurement 8% 4% Governance 8% 4% Third party activities 8% 2% We do not have any indication why there are reductions in the resources being brought into Internal Audit Departments. It may simply be a matter of availability and/or cost. We have, however, compared the qualifications of Internal Audit Departments recorded within the 2010 survey to the 2008 survey to see if qualifications among are increasing in some areas as a possible explanation.

The table below provides an indication of how heads of internal audit acquire the additional resources the pattern of which is similar to that of Sources of additional resources Percent Purchased from specialist service providers 30% Co-sourcing with a third party 30% Independent experts from within the business ( guest auditors ) 15% Secondment staff from a third party 6% From other source (please specify in additional comments field) 6% Conclusions Despite the recession the demand for Internal Audit remains constant and is growing in some quarters. While we do not have evidence to support such a claim the pressure being placed upon organisations to improve governance, risk management and control may well be a contributory factor. Whatever the reason the prospects for internal auditors look favourable, albeit demanding. It would also appear that there is a healthy market for those people looking for part time opportunities. There is no formula for determining the size of an Internal Audit Department and the number of audits that must be carried out for a certain size of organisation. Every organisation is unique with different risks, stakeholder requirements, structure and operations. If there were such a formula we all would know about it by now. What we do know is that Internal Audit Departments must have a broad range of qualifications and experience to fulfil their role and responsibilities. The IIA qualifications along with financial qualifications appear to provide the core foundations but this is supplemented by a range of specialist knowledge and experience. Heads of Internal Audit do what they can to acquire and develop staff in these specialist skills but most, approximately 60%, acquire these from outside the Internal Audit Department. Our survey shows that there has been a slight reduction in these acquired skills since 2008 and time will tell whether this trend continues. Some key facts from the survey include: 60% of Heads of Internal Audit report to the Chief Financial Officer Page 4
