Standard-setting Processes and Due Diligence
Standard-setting in the Public Interest
This document presents a standard-setting framework that ensures the International Internal Audit Standards Board sets high-quality standards, worthy of extensive global adoption and implementation. The standard-setting framework includes a structure and due process that together articulate the stakeholder responsiveness of international standard-setting for internal auditing. Thus, the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing duly consider the public interest. The Oversight Council believes that an internal audit activity aligned with the Standards is more likely to protect the public interest and to achieve internal audit's mission: to enhance and protect organizational value.
The International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF)® is the conceptual framework that organizes authoritative guidance promulgated by The IIA. The scope of the IPPF is only authoritative guidance developed by an IIA international technical committee following appropriate due process.
