OVERVIEW
Risk-based auditing is a style of auditing which focuses upon the analysis and management of risk. A traditional audit would focus upon the transactions which would make up financial statements such as the balance sheet. A risk-based approach will seek to identify risks with the greatest potential impact. Risk management is crucial in maintaining an effective internal control system and having effective corporate governance .It considers the risks of failing to achieve audit objectives and the opportunities created by choosing various audit methods and strategies.
The need to manage risks is increasingly recognized as essential to effective corporate governance and to maintaining an effective system of internal control. Internal audit plays a key role in providing assurance that risks to the organization are properly managed.
