▼ The main objective of this research was to raise and present isomorphism???s evidences in Operational
Risk Management (ORM) of Financial Institutions (FIs) operating in
Brazil. As specific objectives, to identify convergences and evaluate why they occur. It was made a qualitative and descriptive study of the historical development of ORM in FIs, regulations and similar works. It was carried out content analysis of "Pillar 3" Reports from ten IFs (75% of total assets) that acted in
Brazil between 2013 and 2015. It was used descriptive categorizations of situations/events based on the theoretical framework, classified as performance evidence. It was found the presence of 100% of categories from coercive mechanism, 78% from the normative and 70% from the mimetic, proving the simultaneous performance of the mechanisms. The main categories for mechanism and disclosure index were: a) Coercive: related to legal compliance (100%); other
risk management beyond the mandatory (89%); Business Continuity Plan (78%), a model of the three defense lines (56%), and prioritization of risks (56%). b) normative: committee responsibilities, executive officers and alike (100%); training in operational
risk (78%), and dissemination of the
risk culture (67%). c) mimetic: the use of technology in ORM (100%) and in loss databases (78%); the standardization of procedures between headquarters and branches (78%), as well as the use of indicators (78%). As a convergence point, there is a search for improvement of the ORM, and the compliance with requested criteria for approval of
internal models to calculate capital requirements. The homogenization of the ORM was due to the legal demands, and its beneficial effects positively change the environment. The public disclosure of principles, the best practices and "Pillar 3" Reports allow other companies to use the main information and implement their own ORM structures. As future researches, we suggest the evolution of operational losses and evidence of the ORM performance; the current development stage of
internal models; the profile analysis of people hired in the area, from the perspective of normative isomorphism; the technologies used in the ORM to identify mimetic isomorphism; the categories update of each mechanism, including technology area characteristics and human resources; as well as the research replication for companies
subject to specific regulations, such as SOX and capital markets.

Organisational performance management as a mechanism to improve service delivery in the South African public sector: the contribution of internal auditing as an enabler

▼ The advent of democracy in 1994 prompted the South African government to provide public goods to the entire population as opposed to providing services along racial lines, as was the case during the apartheid era. Consequently, government expenditure increased considerably. However, continuous service delivery protests in recent years indicate that government has not been operating optimally. The Department of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation and National Treasury introduced Organisational Performance
Management (OPM) to improve service delivery. Government also adopted
internal auditing as a mechanism to improve OPM because of
internal auditing’s mandate, role and body of knowledge.
This study explored the implementation of OPM as a
management tool to assist national departments in effectively delivering goods and services to the public economically and efficiently. The study also explored the adoption of
internal auditing by national departments as a mechanism to improve OPM.
The study followed a sequential mixed methods approach. The chief audit executives of eighteen national departments participated in the quantitative phase. Interviews were held with employees from four national departments as well as two monitoring departments. Departmental officials included five deputy directors-general, three chief directors, four directors, one deputy director and one senior
internal auditor. Seven focus group discussions were held with twenty-two
internal auditors from the four departments. Sixty-four documents were analysed.
The study found that national departments have implemented systems of OPM and the reporting of quarterly performance information but are at different levels of maturity. However,
governance and reporting fatigue and a reluctance to implement effective consequence
management for poor performance may be undermining optimal performance. National departments may be also preparing strategic plans, annual performance plans and annual reports simply for compliance rather than for optimal
performance. The study also found that
internal auditors may not have a thorough understanding of the department’s performance environment and consequently undertake limited assessments of OPM, focusing mainly on quarterly performance information (PI) and documentation rather than on organisational strategy. However, management’s expectations from
internal auditing go beyond assessing the quarterly PI and require advice and guidance on strategic imperatives. The appropriate skills, knowledge and training of
internal auditors therefore require review.
Management expects assurance of sustainable future performance of the department.
Internal auditing currently stands positioned to make an evolutionary transformation into becoming the most important strategic partner to
management. However, under-theorisation and a restricted
internal auditing approach inhibit its natural evolution.

Corporate Governance & Risk Management in Financial Institutions: An International Comparison between Brazil and Germany.
Degree: 2015, RCAAP
URL: http://www.rcaap.pt/detail.jsp?id=oai:repositorio.ual.pt:11144/1184

▼ In this monograph, we have discussed various aspects of
corporate governance and
risk
management from an international viewpoint and with a special focus on
Brazil and Germany
as well as banking, taking into account the developments since the beginning of the latest
financial crisis in 2007/2008.
Clearly,
Brazil and Germany are quite different countries – culturally and economically. Still,
there are some similarities, reflected for instance in total market capitalization of listed
companies or the Open Budget Index.
In terms of
corporate governance, we could confirm that the general impression is still that of
clear differences, but when looking deeper into the different topics, we found that diff erences
are diminishing as
Brazil is improving in these areas, while Germany appears to progress
quite slowly.
With regards to
risk management, differences are perceived to be strong overall, but appear to
be muted in the area of financial services, certainly due to strict and similar or even identical
regulation (e.g. Basel III).
Our analysis of data from surveys used for this study shows that there have been moderate
increases in perceived quality, regulation and importance of both,
risk management and
corporate governance. This is largely true for both countries; still we found that especially
regarding
corporate governance, such increases have been lower or even non-existent in
Germany.
The reason might be that the Brazilian society feels a stronger necessity to improve in those
areas than that of Germany, which might have started from a higher level. Still, the crises
(financial and European sovereign) have had more impact – although still moderate – on
Germany than on
Brazil.
The hypotheses that
corporate governance and
risk management had become more important
over the 2007-2013 period could however not be fully confirmed, given that results of the
analysis of annual reports did not produce consistent results.
Agreement existed amongst participants in our survey that
risk management is a part of
corporate governance, although also here, affirmation from participants covering Germany
was weaker than that from respondents working in
Brazil.
Consequently, we believe that
risk management should be included as a section in its own
right in those
corporate governance codes where this is not yet the case today. This would also help to further strengthen the conceptual integration of
risk management as part of
corporate governance and might support the advancement of both.
Furthermore, the establishment of
risk-, advisory- and remuneration-committees (where not
already in place) and Family Councils for family-owned businesses might be helpful to instill
more discipline and achieve a higher
internal independence.
In summary, no major changes have been perceived to have taken place in the areas of…

▼ The several crises and many scandals occurred in the recent history of the Financial Market, brings about discussions concerning audit work aiming
auditing report issuance. Therefore, this research aims to determine the level of regulatory compliance relating to the audit report established by Resolutions n??. CFC 1.231/09 - ISA 700, CFC n?? 1.232/09 - ISA 705, CFC n??. 1.233/09 - ISA 706 on the
auditing reports issued by companies of information technology sector, available on the website of BM&FBovespa. To reach the proposed goal we have performed a study based on the technique of document analysis and content analysis, in which we have attempted to identify the content of the reports of selected audits adequacy, determined by the existing rules for the issuance of the
auditing report. The research is descriptive and qualitative approach have been used, checking the contents of 25 audit reports of companies in the information technology industry in which we have compared the mandatory content established by the standard with the contents of the reports. It has been found that: the reports issued by independent
auditing firms on the financial statements of the Information Technology companies for the period 2010-2012. It can be concluded that the reports analyzed, show adequacy to the regulations currently in force, in 10 of the 16 mandatory items established by those rules. However, it has been verified inadequacy as to the way exception is presented in the reports, i.e., through an emphasis paragraph, when it should be in an specific paragraph for exceptions. All the information collected is described and analyzed in the development of this work

Despite the importance of the IAF to organisations, little is known about IAF quality beyond the viewpoint of the external auditor or beyond the IAF’s role of assuring financial reporting. The objective of this thesis is to better understand what is IAF quality by considering the experiences of other corporate governance stakeholders.

▼ This study examines the adoption of information technology within the accounting information system (AIS) of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Thailand focusing on the AIS, internal control and risk. A comparison made is between SMEs which have moved into the market for alternative investment (MAl) referred to as Initial Public Offerings (IPO) and those which have not. In a triangulated approach both mail survey and interview techniques were used to increase the richness of the data. Sampling was undertaken in the Bangkok region as IPO SMEs are located within this region. The results indicated that in non-IPO firms fifty-two percentage operate a computerized accounting information system as compared to seventy-seven percentage of IPO SMEs, forty-two percent of non-IPO operated a mixed system as compared to twenty-three percent of IPO firms. Interestingly only six percentage of non-IPO firms still operate manual systems. Both IPO and non-IPO SMEs indicated that they believed the use of information technology improved the firm's ability to capture and record business operations and business events, to assist in providing timely information, and to provide better information in terms of relevance and reliability to assist management in reducing costs and improving productivity as well as reducing risk. The functions associated with the AIS of collecting and storing transaction data, and processing data into information that is useful for decision making and providing adequate controls to safeguard the organisation's assets are identified to be important. There is recognition that the application of technology within the accounting information system is able to increase the efficiency of internal business operation as well as ensuring the adequacy of financial reporting.

▼ D.Litt et Phil.
The establishment of Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs) was seen as a way of addressing the continued shortage of skilled professionals in order to ensure a competitive South African economy in the global environment. The SETAs attracted much media attention as a result of poor service delivery primarily attributed to poor corporate governance. Despite the many positive contributions by SETAs, they remain the most criticized entities in post-democratic South Africa. The study entails a description, explanation and assessment of the concepts corporate governance, risk management and compliance in SETAs. The legislative framework that underpins good corporate governance is identified and explained. The roles of the board and its fiduciary duties, and of the audit committee and the roles of executive management are described in order to ensure a clear understanding of each of them and a separation of each from the others. The concepts corporate governance, risk management and compliance are inseparable from the well-being of any organization. The board of an entity is ultimately accountable for the implementation of good corporate governance. Its role can be of value only if it is properly constituted, is functioning effectively and if its role is understood by all parties concerned. The manifestations of poor corporate governance include poor financial management, non-compliance with policies and procedures, lack of capacity building and the lack of a formalized nomination system to identify suitably qualified and experienced board members. By exercising corporate governance in an accountable and transparent manner, the most appropriate developmental policy objectives to sustainably develop a society by mobilizing and applying all available resources in the public and private sectors in the most efficient, efficient and democratic way will be achieved.

▼ Proper records
management plays a significant role in the
auditing process,
risk management and wider
corporate governance. Despite this role, in South Africa, many governmental bodies are issued with disclaimer reports every year by the Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) due to a lack of supporting documentation. This problem is exacerbated by the exclusion of records
management from the criteria for a sound financial
management infrastructure in many governmental bodies. The other dilemma is that some records such as financial records, personnel records and electronic records usually fall outside the jurisdiction of the organisation’s records manager. Utilising the King Report III as a framework, this study sought to develop a framework to embed records
management practices into the
auditing process in the public sector of South Africa, with a view to entrench a culture of clean audits. The study relied on mixed methods research (MMR), with the quantitative study conducted first through informetrics analysis of audit reports, while the qualitative paradigm was used to substantiate numerical data. Data collection adopted a multi-approach with four key sources of data: a questionnaire, interviews, literature review and publicly available data from the consolidated general reports of AGSA. The study revealed that most governmental bodies have established
internal audit units, audit committees and records
management units, which did not work in unison. In most governmental bodies records
management did not form part of the audit scope and records
management professionals were not part of the audit committees. As a result, most governmental bodies continued to receive negative audit opinions from AGSA. The study recommends that records
management community should utilise
auditing and
risk management as a springboard to propel records
management to the new heights. A further empirical study on the role of
auditing and
risk management in records
management that embraces both the private and public sectors is recommended.

▼ Performance of the institutions in the public sector
has always been among the main drivers that determine how the
country is ultimately perceived by its citizens and the world, it
is the policies and regulations established by these institutions
that governs the private sector. The objectives of these public
institutions can only be achieved through well formulated, well
implemented and a continuous review of the strategies being pursued
to achieve the stated objectives. At the core of setting strategies
is Enterprise
Risk Management (ERM), being an organisational
procedure enabling the identification, assessment and action plans
for the organisational risks linking to the achievement of
objectives. The action plans formulated through the ERM should
translate into strategic objectives mainly in the public sector
where resources are chronically limited. Even with good intentions,
government may spend badly because it has either chosen the wrong
projects to fund or planned badly for good projects if the
strategies are not continually and systematically reviewed. The
objective of this research was to gain an understanding of how
risk
management is conducted at an enterprise-wide level within public
sector institutions to ensure that the institution complies with
all the relevant requirements within its ambit. It was a
qualitative study that was conducted using a case study methodology
wherein a public sector institution was identified and the
executives involved in the
risk management were interviewed
individually. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and the
results were analysed through the themes that were identified. The
study identified that more understanding is required by public
sector organisations to be able to realise the benefits of ERM. A
clear distinction of what the objectives of the institution are,
the related strategies, strategic objectives and risks to the
strategic objectives, need to be made clear. The use of
risk
registers at different levels of the organisation is a tool to draw
the relevant risks from deep in operations to a strategic level and
this has to be understood at all levels. More importantly the
correct action plans in reaction to identified risks can greatly
turn risks into opportunities but this is not currently the case as
risk registers are still not well implemented and utilized.
Risk
identification should not be a brainstorming session when the
strategy is created but a continuous well operated system within
operations throughout the period. The
risk culture, roles and
relevant systems are still lacking in public
institutions.

▼ Corporate governance as a discipline is in its own right is a relatively new and extremely dynamic and emergent subject. It has taken prominence after the notorious collapse of several international high profile companies such as Lehman Brothers, Enron and WorldCom. One important element of corporate governance is that of risk management and risk disclosure. The management of business risk is a strategic issue which is becoming increasingly important for boards of directors and senior management. The purpose of the study is to examine whether or not the Zambian corporate governance framework has responded to the international corporate governance trend of risk management and the subsequent risk disclosure. The dissertation examines and discusses the importance of corporate governance and the governance elements of risk management and risk disclosure in relation to how they enhance transparency in listed companies. The research was conducted mainly through desk research and interviews were also conducted with key informants.The findings were that the governance element of risk and risk management are not incorporated into the Companies Act as a statutory requirement but they are found under the Lusaka Stock Exchange Corporate Governance Code ( LuSE Code) .The research further found that risk management and risk disclosure is important for listed companies because it enhances transparency and it also allows the company’s stakeholders to have a clear picture of the state of the company’s affairs, particularly in today’s volatile corporate environment. This disclosure ought to be sufficient, timely and accurate. It was observed by the author that there is more emphasis placed on financial risk disclosures as opposed to non financial risk disclosure.It can be concluded that the case for risk management and risk disclosure is an important and relevant consideration in our Zambian context and it requires that the law and policy makers in so far as corporate governance is concerned regroup in order to revise and update the LuSE Code and the Companies Act in order to keep abreast with international best practice in corporate governance reform.

▼ M.Com. (Computer Auditing)
This dissertation aims to explore the entity characteristics associated with the implementation of the board-level stand-alone risk management committee (RMC) in South Africa. We developed a battery of econometric models based on triangulation of corporate governance theories which linked an entity’s decision to set up a separate risk management committee (RMC) in its board structures as a dependent variable and a host of entity-specific factors as independent variables. Data collected from audited annual reports of 181 JSE-listed non-financial entities was analysed using logistics regression estimation procedures. Our results show a strong positive relationship between the likelihood that an entity would establish a separate RMC, on the one hand, and board independence, board size, entity size, and industry type, on the other. Our study fails to find support for the hypothesis that an entity’s characteristics – such as the independence of the board chairman, the use of Big Four audit firms, financial reporting risks, and levels of financial leverage – do influence an entity’s decision to form a separate RMC. Our findings emphasize the role that information asymmetry between executive and non-executive directors, agency cost and potential damage to reputation capital of directors; diversity in background, expertise, and skills of directors; economies of scale in absorbing RMC costs; and industry-specific institutions and norms play in an entity’s decision to form a separate RMC. The implication of our findings is that policy-makers should consider the size and composition of boards and also take cognizance of entity size and industry-specific idiosyncrasies in setting recommended corporate governance practices.

▼ Corporate scandals such as Enron, WorldCom and Parmalat, have focused recent
governance efforts in the domain of financial reporting due to fraudulent and/or erroneous accounting practices. In addition, the ineffectiveness of the current system of controls has been highlighted, including that some directors have been weak and ineffective monitors of managers. This board of director ‘weakness’ has called for additional mechanisms for monitoring and controlling of
management, focusing on financial reporting. This problem intensifies in that today companies function in real-time, and decisions are based on available realtime financial information. However, the assurances provided by traditional
auditing take place months after the transactions have occurred and therefore, a trust problem arises because information is not verified in real-time. Consequently, the errors and fraud concealed within the financial information is not discovered until months later. To address this trust problem a conceptual causal model is proposed in this study based on the principles of systems theory. The emergent property of the causal model is increased trust and control. This study establishes that mutual assurances assist in building trust and that information security assists in safeguarding trust. Subsequently, in order to have a positive relationship between the company directors and various stakeholders, uncertainty needs to be contained, and the level of trust needs to surpass the perceived risks. The study concludes that assurances need to be provided in real-time to restore stakeholder confidence and trust in the domain of financial reporting. In order to provide assurances in real-time, continuous
auditing is required to verify the integrity of financial information when it becomes available, and not months later. A continuous
auditing process has its foundations grounded in information technology and attends to the challenges in real-time by addressing the standardisation of data to enable effective analysis, the validation of the accuracy of the data and the reliability of the system

▼ This research highlights the practices of
internal audit as an instrument influenced
management to improve performance, through the review of the perception of managers of a Public Financial Institution. It was a qualitative and quantitative descriptive study, with a single observation field study, by means of a questionnaire investigation. The main population was composed of managers and subordinates to the area of
internal audit (control group) and the Administrative strategic planning and subordinate areas (user group). To reach the goal of the study, it was applied questionnaire surveys, available online. The survey results confirmed the perception of the use of
internal audit as an instrument in decision making, susceptible to improvement in the strategic planning process and effects on the administrative cycle of the institution, on aspects of Performance Audit. Among the main findings, it was evident that the perception of managers, that the researched financial institution shows concern in results-oriented
management but the
internal audit is apparently more focused on the control (in the evaluation of the implemented performance) rather than planning (in the criticism of planned performance)

▼ The choice of this theme was motivated by personal interest of the author and by his presence in the area, in addition, the changes due to publication of the Sarbanes & Oxley generated great impacts on the
internal audit activity in insurance companies. The general objective of the research is to examine the new skills to meet changes in the insurance market after the Sarbanes & Oxley, and aims to identify specific skills required of the
internal auditor active in the insurance market and verify the perception of the
internal auditor active in the insurance market on the degree of importance of these skills. In this context, this research provides the lifting of three assumptions: H1 The skills required of
internal auditors working in the insurance market are equivalent to a whole; H2 Among the skills required of
internal auditors working in the insurance market, technical knowledge is more important; H3 Among the skills required of
internal auditors working in the insurance market, the interpersonal and communication skills are more important. To conduct this research was conducted a survey that allowed bibliographic detect the powers of
internal audit in the face of demands for transparency and accountability post-publication of the law, then there was a group of integrated focus for professionals working in
auditing and consulting companies insurance which enabled describe the specific skills of the
internal auditor in the insurance market. As a result of the focus group pointed to 19 skills required of the
internal auditor. In a second stage, was drawn up a questionnaire, where 12 were selected among the powers given by the focus group. The questionnaire was answered by 105
internal auditors. As a result of this research, identified itself as the most important skills identified were: Knowing the Sarbanes - Oxley Mastering the concepts and methodology of the audit, and know the concepts of COSO. There is also a trend that there is the possibility that number 2 (H2) presented. It can be concluded with the results achieved in this research that the impact generated by the Sarbanes & Oxley influenced directly in the execution of
internal audit activities in the insurance companies and consequently the skills required in his role.

▼ Društvene nauke / pravo osiguranja Social sciences
/ the insurance law
У докторској дисертацији аутор обрађује правни
режим контроле и управљања ризицима у друштву за осигурање према
комунитарном праву и праву Републике Србије. Истраживање се базира
на анализи позитивно-правних решења као и одређених решења која су
им претходила, узимајући у обзир и преовлађујућa доктринарна
схватања. Циљ је откривање правне природе и смисла односа који се
успостављају у оквиру ових института, те њиховог значаја за
унапређење и даљи развој корпоративног управљања у друштву за
осигурање. У оквиру овог рада, аутор даје правну дефиницију
института управљања ризицима и то анализирајући правну природу овог
института као и његових саставних елемената – подинститута
(контрола, ризик, и управљање), те долази до открића његове правне
форме. Кроз откривање правне форме аутор доприноси расветљавању
односа који се de iure и de facto успостављају у примени овог
института, те бољем разумевању суштине ове превасходно економске
материје. У дисертацији је приказан утицај нове парадигме,
управљања ризицима кроз дужности и одговорности чланова управе, као
и улогу и значај надзорног и регулаторног органа на развој
управљања ризицима, те корпоративног управљања, pro futuro, у
друштву за осигурање. Резултат истраживања је sui generis правна
природа института управљања ризицима у друштву за осигурање и битно
ревидиран правни положај органа друштва и њихових права, обавеза и
одговорности као подинститута унутар института корпоративног
управљања. На крају истраживања се потврђује почетна хипотеза која
је присутна у читавом садржају рада и која се састоји у томе да
управљање ризиком представља интегрални део правног односа који
одређује и на коме се заснива корпоративно управљање са свим
његовим конституентама, али који корпоративном управљању даје нову
димензију и значај у остваривању циљева друштва.

▼ One of the preventive measures to situations akin to world financial crises increasingly forwarded is effective internal audit function (IAF) (e.g., Imhoff, 2003; Mohamad & Muhamad Sori, 2011). Internal audit, a component of corporate governance, continues to evolve due to changes in business strategies and requirements placed on it by legislators. The roles of internal auditors and audit committees (ACs), the key personnel in IAFs, are changing to a more value-added approach as business strategies move towards corporate sustainability and organisational excellence. Suggestions forwarded to improve the performance or determining the quality of IAF include effective involvement of ACs in internal audit activities, the employment of competent internal auditors and determining the impact of internal audit on corporate governance (e.g., Mohamad & Muhamad Sori, 2011, Sarens, 2009, Turley & Zaman, 2007). Research on the quality of internal audit has focussed mainly on the relationships of internal audit with internal control and ACs (e.g., Fadzil, Haron, & Jantan, 2005; Mat Zain & Subramaniam, 2007; Turley & Zaman, 2007). However, none has linked the impact of internal audit performance to corporate governance.
This study provides an agency of value view, explaining the effectiveness of IAF and its impact on corporate governance. Using a convergent mixed methods approach, the main findings from survey data collected from corporate members of the Institute of Internal Auditors Malaysia are compared and integrated with perspectives from chief audit executives of selected public listed companies interviewed. The factors investigated are the structure of the IAF, activities of best practices in internal auditing, ACs’ involvement as stated by the Malaysian public listing guidelines (Bursa Malaysia, 2000, 2009b) and the World Bank’s corporate governance framework (World Bank, 1991). An exploration on the extent of collaborations and combined assurances in internal audit is also carried out.
The primary analysis on the probability of an effective IAF and profiling of the internal audit activities, level of AC involvement and areas of corporate governance is made using the Rasch model. Non-parametric tests are also used to determine the statistical significance of the relationships of the components investigated. In-depth interview data are analysed using template analysis.
The findings support the establishment of an in-house IAF with a definitive team size and professional expertise for an effective IAF. Other IAF components are member experience, combined audit activities and collaborations of audit activities. Although these other components are not significantly related to the effectiveness of IAF, the indepth interviews provided more explanations on their importance in internal audit. An important structure of the IAF is the AC’s oversight role. The findings also indicate that the level of ACs’ involvement in the reviews of each stage of the internal audit process contributes to the overall effectiveness of IAF. Due to…

▼ Summary: In the period leading up to the early 2000s there were a series of large company failures attributed at least in part to audit failures. Consequently, the Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX) was promulgated in July 2002 to restore confidence in public company financial reporting and the work of auditors. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) was established by SOX and appointed as the regulator of the accounting firms that audit the financial statements of public companies. The PCAOB is required to routinely inspect the operations of these accounting firms in an effort to satisfy its mandate to bring about an improvement in the audit quality of these companies. These inspections extend to the non-US auditors of companies that are cross-listed in the US. Despite various mainly US studies on inspections, there is limited evidence that the inspections have resulted in improved audit quality. ... I examine companies whose securities are cross-listed in the US in the periods before and after inspection in order to provide evidence on the benefits of inspections. I find some evidence that inspections improve the audit quality of companies that are cross-listed in the US. This suggests the audit quality of companies from countries that do not permit inspections may be positively affected should inspections be permitted.

▼ The research area of Continuous Monitoring (CM) is rather manifold. The concept of CM has emerged as a link between
corporate governance, financial reporting, audit,
internal control and IT. In order to meet compliance and operational objectives, organizations establish
internal systems that categorize the most important risks, with all the necessary mitigating measures, entitled controls. Together, the controls should provide reasonable assurance that the business is in control. Publicly traded companies develop
internal control systems with the main purpose of providing accurate financial statements that portray the reality as it is. In order to do that controls must be tested on a regular basis. Due to the high amount of work required, it has become an auditor’s task instead of the controller’s duty. For that reason, extensive academic work exists on the topic of audit, more precisely on Continuous
Auditing (CA). CA refers to the use of system-based techniques that replace the manual audit ones. Although CM has emerged with an identical meaning as CA, a clear delimitation started to be observed over the past years between the two. Although no generally accepted terminology exists on CM, they all refer “a process to ensure that policies and processes are operating efficiently and to assess adequacy and effectiveness of controls” (CICA/AICPA, 1999).
The recent technological advancements make it possible for the controllers to monitor their controls on a regular basis, and provide evidence to the audit whether controls are functioning as intended, and what steps are performed in case exceptions are encountered. One example of a control is the three-way match. The amount of goods ordered, the amount of goods received, and the amount of goods invoiced, together with their value must match. Although the three-way match setting exists in most ERP systems, due to their complexity, it is assumed that this setting is enabled. CM provides complete assurance whether such a setting is enabled or not, and, most importantly, examines the entire population of transactions to check whether there are any three-way mismatches.
Due to the significant amount of controls that organizations set, it is unclear on which controls to focus first in a CM implementation project. Consequently, this research proposes an
internal control prioritization tool that would identify and relate the relevant dimensions in order to prioritize a set of controls. In order to evaluate the results of the framework, two case studies are used. Challenges of adopting CM technology are identified by the means of a questionnaire. A clear picture of what CM represents is presented by performing extensive literature study various discussions within BWise and expert interviews.

▼ A presente dissertação tem por objetivo analisar a adequabilidade da regulamentação do
Sistema de Controle Interno do Poder Executivo Federal do Brasil e qual a sua influência
sobre os sistemas de controle interno atualmente implementados pelas entidades públicas
federais existentes em sua estrutura organizacional.
Para fazer frente a este desafio é analisada a evolução da regulamentação do controle interno
no setor público federal brasileiro, possibilitando observar-se a mudança de filosofia que
ocorreu sob a influência das ideologias que imperavam no cenário mundial das últimas
décadas do século XX, especialmente as relativas às Teorias do Principal-Agente e da Escolha
Pública, e da própria Carta Magna Brasileira promulgada em 1988. É também examinado o
alinhamento do Poder Executivo Federal (PEF) a esta nova tendência do controle interno
público, predominantemente, fiscalizatória, quando da concepção de seu atual Sistema de
Controle Interno, cujos resultados apontaram para sua parcial adequação aos conceitos e
pressupostos, internacionalmente, já consagrados.
Com o intuito de analisar se as normas e os mecanismos de controle interno implementados
pelas macroentidades do PEF estão em conformidade com os modelos de controle interno
organizacional geralmente aceitos a nível internacional recorre-se ao estudo do caso do
Comando da Aeronáutica (COMAER). Os resultados revelam uma conformidade parcial do
sistema de controlo interno instituído no COMAER face às componentes do controle interno
relativas ao ambiente de controle, avaliação de risco e atividades de monitoramento.
Estendendo-se a análise aos sistemas de controle interno em funcionamento nas Unidades
Gestoras Executoras do COMAER, é verificado, em termos gerais, que estes são percebidos
pelos principais agentes responsáveis pelo seu gerenciamento (os Agentes de Controlo Interno
– ACI), como adequados face aos modelos de controle interno mundialmente reconhecidos.
No entanto, uma percentagem significativa de ACI perceciona os componentes relativos à
avaliação de risco, às atividades de monitoramento, e, em alguns aspectos, ao ambiente de
controle, como estando num estágio inicial ou básico, quando analisados segundo os
fundamentos preconizados pelos referidos modelos internacionais.

▼ Internal auditors are indispensable professionals for the effective risk management within every organisation. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the functions of internal audit and its ultimate impact in ensuring effective risk management in Commercial banks in Ghana. Descriptive research was carried out using both qualitative and quantitative methods of research through the administration of questionnaire. A sample size of 45 internal auditors was used for the study and data was analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). It was identified that although most of the internal auditors within the commercial banks in Ghana are not registered members of the Institute of Internal Auditing, they are allowed to work independently without any hindrance from management of the banks. Moreover, it was identified that the functions of internal auditors are to review all internal controls, review processes and procedures, and make recommendations for management with regards to best practices in ensuring optimum productivity and performance of the bank. Additionally, the internal auditors of the commercial banks are involved in the risk management, risk mitigation, and risk monitoring. This has made the reports of internal auditors have much influence on management’s decisions in making and amending policies, business strategies, and guidelines, the introduction of new controls within the management of our products and services. Conclusively, a strong and positive relationship was established between functions of internal auditors and risk management and functions of internal auditors and impact of bank’s compliance to regulations within the banking industry. Therefore, it is highly recommended that the management of the bank should put in place a quarterly internal audit overhaul to strategically review all its risk management practices against expectations of the regulator.

▼ This dissertation is a collection of three essays that investigate the role and importance of discretionary disclosures by managers, stock price comovement and government intervention into financial markets during a financial crisis. Chapter 1 explores the
governance implications on a firm’s information environment in the context of discretionary hedging disclosures made by oil and gas companies from 1991 to 2013. Firms with poor
governance relative to industry peers are more likely to voluntarily disclose hedging changes and do so more frequently. My findings indicate that discretionary disclosures and
governance are substitutes as firms increase their transparency to offset relatively poor
governance based on traditional measures of
corporate governance. I also provide evidence that poorly (well) governed firms with high institutional ownership are more (less) likely to increase the transparency of their hedging policy changes through discretionary disclosures.
Chapter 2 investigates how a firm’s dividend initiation announcement (positive news) influences stock prices of seemingly unrelated firms within the same metropolitan statistical area (MSA). After accounting for firm, industry, and geographic characteristics, dividend paying firms located in areas with a higher percentage of dividend clientele experience a positive comovement reaction when a seemingly unrelated firm within the same MSA announces a dividend initiation. The positive reactions are specifically for dividend paying firms, while non-dividend payers exhibit no significant response. These results are robust to numerous regression methods and alternative explanations. Collectively, these findings are consistent with the positive-investor attention hypothesis, suggesting positive spillover effects from news announcements for other local firms in the presence of individual investor clientele.
Chapter 3 examines the effects of government guaranteed bank bonds. We find guaranteed bank bonds vastly improve debt liquidity, default
risk, and significantly reduce the cost of debt for less liquid, more risky, and shorter-term bond issuances. Greater benefits for riskier and shorter-term bonds are related to the positive term structure of the government insurance premia combined with a negative term structure of credit spreads for weaker banks. These results are consistent with extant theory concerning the financial accelerator, credit spread term structures, and default-liquidity loops.

▼ This dissertation reflects the results of a study during which the 2006 annual reports of the top-40 JSE listed companies, were assessed for their disclosure of the required
corporate governance statements. Content analysis was used to identify the information.
The results obtained indicate that the majority of the JSE's top-40 listed companies adhere to good
corporate governance disclosure practices. However, there are areas in which the non-disclosure of information was prevalent. These include the disclosure of information on the selection of external auditors and whistle blowing. Future research, employing sources such as SENS announcements, press releases, trading updates, cautionary announcements and websites together with annual reports should be conducted.

▼ The purpose of this study is to examine external auditors´ current practices when performing an audit of companies with environmentally hazardous activities, i.e. if the environmental risks are taken into account by the auditor of an audit. To understand what the auditors should review, this study also examines how these companies control their environmental risks. A qualitative method has been conducted based on ten semi-structured interviews, consisting of auditors experienced in auditing industrial companies as well as corporate managers of the largest industrial companies within the Stockholm Stock Exchange. Furthermore, information has also been obtained from annual reports of the companies. This study shows that the auditors` practices, when conducting audits of environmental hazardous companies, do not include a comprehensive investigation of risks arising from environmental hazardous activities. Furthermore, the study shows that big, listed industrial companies have a strong internal control that manages their environmental risks. The companies are aware that they are exposed to risks due to their operations and they are taking adequate actions to control them such as different management systems.

▼ Este trabalho aborda como é estruturada a comunicação nos processos de gestão de risco corporativo para identificar como é realizado o alinhamento das informações e percepções sobre riscos entre a gestão, conselho de administração e demais públicos interessados. Foi realizada revisão da literatura sobre Governança Corporativa, Gestão de Riscos, Gestão de Riscos Corporativos e Comunicação sobre riscos. Devido à escassez de estudos relacionados ao tema esta pesquisa possui caráter exploratório e foi utilizado o método de estudo de caso. Devido às limitações do método utilizado, as principais contribuições da pesquisa são evidências que apontam para o papel da gestão de risco corporativo como complementar à gestão de risco em silos, para a parceria entre especialistas e não especialistas em gestão de risco como fator que influencia na qualidade dos processos e da comunicação sobre riscos, bem como possíveis fatores que influenciam na formação e manutenção desta relação de parceria, além de evidências da presença de pessoas com experiência em gestão de riscos e nas atividades da empresa como possível fator que afetar a relação entre especialistas e não especialistas em gestão de riscos e a qualidade dos processos de gestão de risco.
This paper discusses how communication in enterprise risk management is structured to identify how managers, board member and other stakeholders align information and perceptions about risks. The literature review covers Corporate Governance, Risk Management, Enterprise Risk Management and Communication about risks. Due to the limitations of the method used in this research the main contributions are evidences pointing to the role of corporate risk management as complementary to the risk management silo approach, the partnership between specialists and non specialists in risk management as a factor that influences quality of processes and communication about risks and factors that might influence the formation and maintenance of this partnership relationship as well evidences of the presence of people with experience in risk management and the company\'s activities as a possible factor affecting the relationship between experts and nonexperts in risk management and the quality of risk management processes.

▼ Purpose of this thesis is to describe internal corporate governance controls that businesses use to control and direct the companies’ operations and how these controls impact companies’ business ethics. Author posed three research questions: What internal corporate governance controls are used at different levels in research companies?; How can we determine whether companies, given their characteristics, have more elaborate internal control systems?; and How do research companies communicate internal corporate governance controls to their involved parties in order to maintain a high level of business ethics?. To answer these questions, authors examined four companies in Vietnam and the Czech Republic with a qualitative approach and used cross case study comparison to collect data, process, analyse, and draw conclusions. The thesis is designed based on the research methods for business student by Saunders (2007, 2010) and case study research design and method by Robert K. Yin (2008) with an aim to access the research companies’ internal corporate governance controls and its impact on companies’ business ethics. Semi-structured interviews have been used in combination with companies’ internal documents and archival records to verify and ensure credibility and reliability of the data. The thesis finds that the existence of internal corporate governance controls (ICGC) has certain impact on business ethics (BE). Analysis reveals that research companies in both countries use several levels of ICGC; however ethical “tone from the top” is the determinant factor that makes ICGC impact positively on BE. Furthermore, ICGC in research companies in both countries are built on law-compliance basis, while taking into consideration corporate governance codes and company influence factors, such as personal traits, organizational traits, and national cultures. Two-way communication of ICGC, core values, and leaders’ commitments will impact BE positively. Therefore, following recommendations are made, based on the thesis empirical findings. Companies can install supporting mechanisms such as nomination committee or remuneration committee in the board, in parallel with existing personnel controls, so that the right personnel, “ethical leaders and managers” can be recruited. Companies are also recommended to consider influence factors thoroughly in building their ICGC as well as set up a two-way communication system to disseminate ICGC, core values, commitments, and BE among staff. Due to the law-compliance oriented attitude in approaching ICGC and BE of companies in both countries, legislators are furthermore encouraged to build in and emphasize BE in their legislative systems to enforce ethical behaviour change process. Authors recommend further research on how business ethics controls could be integrated into ICGC framework and implemented substantially and realistically. A further research about the nature of time lag involved in ICGC and BE approaches by leaders and society would help bring a full picture of the current…
