  • The PCAOB's proposed standard could have the unintended consequence of implying that internal auditors would intentionally 'intercept' and 'alter' information.
  • Like external auditors, internal auditors have an obligation to exercise due care in the handling of all information."
  • Because internal auditors and external auditors have the same independent reporting relationship to the Audit Committee, it is common for external auditors to rely on work performed by internal auditors and/or for internal auditors to directly assist external auditors in the performance of certain duties.
