International standards for the professional practice of internal auditing

The Russian Institute of Internal Auditors and PricewaterhouseCoopers jointly published international standards for the professional practice of internal auditing with official Russian translation. Standards are principle-focused and provide a framework for performing and promoting internal auditing consisting of:

• Statements of basic requirements for the professional practice of internal auditing and for evaluating the effectiveness of its performance. The requirements are internationally applicable at organizational and individual levels.
• Interpretations, which clarify terms or concepts within the statements.

It is necessary to consider both the statements and their interpretations to understand and apply the Standards correctly. The Standards employ terms that have been given specific meanings as noted in the Glossary, which is also part of the Standards.
