They identify potential risks (financial, operational, compliance, or strategic) and evaluate how well the organization is managing them. This aligns closely with frameworks like Institute of Internal Auditors standards and concepts such as Enterprise Risk Management.

Auditors ensure the organization follows applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies. This may include checking adherence to standards like International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation guidelines or industry-specific regulations.
