      This Internal Audit awareness month, it is time to recognise the growing significance of  Internal Audit as a strategic enabler in an era of volatility and transformation. Internal audit is undergoing a profound transformation. With stakeholder expectations growing and emerging risks—from geopolitics, cyber threats to ESG - reshaping the business landscape, the role of internal audit has expanded far beyond traditional assurance.

      The bar for governance and risk management continues to rise, and Internal Audit is central to meeting it with agility, independence, and a deep understanding of the business. Today, it’s about delivering strategic insights, anticipating risks, and enabling resilience. Powered by technology and AI, internal auditors are now equipped to provide sharper foresight, real-time assurance, and greater impact. From identifying gaps to being trusted advisors, internal audit is more relevant than ever - driving integrity, transparency, and value in a rapidly changing world.

      At its core, Internal Audit is about enabling better decisions, identifying risks before they escalate, and adding value across the organisation. We are partners in performance — not just compliance.

      The role of Internal Audit has evolved – from staring in the rearview mirror to crystal gazing and predictive analytics. No longer simply reviewing processes, Internal Audit now serves as the conscience of the Board and Management, offering insights on strategic matters and emerging risks. Today we are stepping into areas like cyber risks, ESG and fraud – and becoming a key voice in boardroom discussions. 

      Our team is made up of critical thinkers, tech-savvy analysts, and trusted advisors who care deeply about doing the right thing — and doing it well. This month, we are proud to spotlight the work we do, the impact we drive, and the people who make it happen.

      India’s real estate landscape continues to evolve and grow at a healthy pace. From new urban skylines to massive infrastructure rollouts, it’s become one of the key drivers of economic transformation. And as the sector continues to scale, the importance of transparency and accountability becomes more critical.

      Behind high-rises, townships and headline investments, lies a deeper foundation - trust. And that’s where internal audit comes in.

      In real estate, bricks, leases and projects rests on a foundation of governance. Internal audit helps keep that structure sound. We review areas from regulatory compliance to capital project risks and lease accounting. Our job is to protect value. This month, as we bring more attention to internal audit awareness, we recognise the internal audit professionals helping real estate firms stay accountable, compliant and trusted by stakeholders.

Internal Audit is evolving - from a control-centric function to a strategic enabler. It helps organisations anticipate change, challenge the status quo, and adapt with agility. As Risk Advisory professionals, we see firsthand how Internal Audit connects the dots across risk, governance, and innovation.

      The bedrock of every successful business relationship is trust. By strengthening governance, managing risks, and seamlessly integrating controls into business operations, Internal Audit plays a vital role in safeguarding and enhancing trust in a business. Collaborating closely with clients across diverse sectors, I consistently observe the increasing demand for forward-thinking and insight-driven Internal Audit functions. This month, let's celebrate the profound impact these functions have in fostering trust and value creation in today’s dynamic business environment.

      In an age of AI and automation, the differentiator for internal auditors isn’t just about mastering the tools – its about cultivating the right mindset. The audit toolbox is evolving-fast. From robotic process automation (RPA) to advanced analytics and now, agentic AI-automation isn’t just enhancing audit efficiency; it is expanding the very scope of what auditors can do.

      But technology alone is not the differentiator. What matters is:

      • Knowing what to automate
      • Interpreting the ‘why’ behind the data
      • Collaborating across functions to generate actionable insights
      • Being both AI-literate and business fluent while maintaining human judgment at the core

      As controls and compliance become increasingly tech-driven, the human edge will come from how auditors build trust, tell stories with data, and navigate ambiguity with confidence. It’s not just about being audit-ready – it’s about being future-ready.

      The real tension isn’t between assurance and influence. It’s between what stakeholders want from internal audit and what internal audit is meant to uphold. Striking that balance - especially in financial services where governance failures have systemic consequences - demands more than just process. It demands courage, consistency, and constructive mindset.
