Risk in Focus

Today's Global Risk Landscape

About Risk in Focus

Risk in Focus provides practical, data-driven insights to help internal auditors and their stakeholders understand today’s risk environment and prepare audit plans for the year ahead.

Reports are based on a worldwide survey of internal audit leadership and regional roundtable results. Risk in Focus was originally developed by the European Institutes Research Group (EIRG), which continues to produce reports each year for Europe.

Reports and stakeholder presentations are provided free to the public, thanks to support from the Internal Audit Foundation, IIA Institutes, corporate sponsors, and IIA regional bodies ACIIA (Asia), AFIIA (Africa), ARABCIIA (Middle East), ECIIA (Europe), FLAI (Latin America).
