Abstract

The developments in corporate governance over the past decade including the post-Enron auditing reforms across the globe have in no doubt contributed to the increasing awareness of the importance of internal audit activates within efficient corporate governance.

The study examined the role of internal audit in corporate governance among UK financial institutions by using a case study of five banks. Areas of particular concern of this project concentrate on what internal audits activities are established, how are these activities performed and can internal audit enhance better corporate governance of banks.
