The financial crisis as well as new laws and regulations following it has lead to an increasing need for Internal Audit. Enhancing the risk management systems and giving assurance to the management are a major issue on the one hand. On the other hand cost cutting has also affected Internal Audit Departments. Thus more with less will become a necessity for Internal Auditors. The ability to work smarter will increase in importance over the coming year. Sharing information and knowledge between internal audit teams will be crucial. The experts of the ECIIA offer you insights and their knowledge about: Internal Audit Standards & Professional Practice FrameworkCorporate Governance & Risk ManagementInternal Audit PracticesFuture of Internal AuditingAn excellent overview about recent developments and requirements for European Internal Auditors!
Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich BWL - Revision, Prüfungswesen, Note: 2,0, Hochschule Offenburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die interne Kontrolle und die interne Überwachung in Unternehmen ist seit Jahren ein in der Öffentlichkeit und in den Medien viel diskutiertes Thema. Bei den spektakulären Schieflagen und Zusammenbrüchen von Unternehmen in Deutschland (z. B. Holzmann, Flowtex, Comroad), in Europa (z. B. Parmalat, Baring Bank) oder in den USA (Enron, Worldcom) wird immer wieder unter anderem auch die Frage aufgeworfen, inwieweit der aus diesen Fällen resultierende volkswirtschaftliche Schaden durch eine verstärkte Reglementierung im Bereich interner Kontrollen für Unternehmen zu vermeiden gewesen wäre. So wurde in Deutschland in den letzten Jahren eine Reihe von Maßnahmen getroffen, um die Qualität der Unternehmensführung und -überwachung zu verbessern. Beispiele hierfür sind: Die Einrichtung und Prüfung eines Risikofrüherkennungssystems bei börsennotierten Aktiengesellschaften (vgl. § 91 Abs. 2 AktG, § 317 Abs. 4 HGB); Die Zuweisung der Befugnis zur Beauftragung des Abschlussprüfers an den Aufsichtrat bei Aktiengesellschaften (vgl. § 111 Abs. 2 AktG); Die Erarbeitung des deutschen Cooperate Governance Kodex. In den USA wurde im Jahr 2002 mit dem Sarbanes-Oxley Act ein Gesetz mit weit reichenden Verpflichtungen im Bereich interner Kontrollen in Kraft gesetzt (Vgl. SOA Section 404 " Management Assessment of internal control"). Von diesen neuen Pflichten sind auch deutsche Unternehmen betroffen, soweit sie den US Kapitalmarkt in Anspruch nehmen. [...]
Jens Hutzschenreuter determines the effect of management control forms on the performance of innovative small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). His findings suggest that in fact indirect control forms have a stronger performance impact than traditional control forms.
"Over the last few decades businesses in Australia and around the world have been utterly transformed by powerful information technologies, from the PC and the internet to email and cellular phones - to the extent that a new type of economy is said to have been created: the 'Now Economy' which is characteriesed by 24/7/365 globalised operations, customer interaction and management decision making. By contrast, the way in which these entities are audited has not experienced an equivalent evolution. Over the last century, external auditors have tended to examine an entity only once a year and listed entities themselves only report quarterly in many parts of the world and half yearly in Australia, even though the capability exists for both reporting and auditing on a much timlier basis. The emerging field of Continuous Assurance attempts to better match internal and external audting practices to the reality of the IT-eanbled entity in order to provide stakeholders with more timely assurance. The dramatic collapse of leading banks around the world makes it all the more important that external and internal auditors take full advantage of modern technology to provide shareholders and managers with the most timely and relevant assurance."--P. 7.
Computational intelligence is a well-established paradigm, where new theories with a sound biological understanding have been evolving. The current experimental systems have many of the characteristics of biological computers (brains in other words) and are beginning to be built to perform a variety of tasks that are difficult or impossible to do with conventional computers. As evident, the ultimate achievement in this field would be to mimic or exceed human cognitive capabilities including reasoning, recognition, creativity, emotions, understanding, learning and so on. This book comprising of 17 chapters offers a step-by-step introduction (in a chronological order) to the various modern computational intelligence tools used in practical problem solving. Staring with different search techniques including informed and uninformed search, heuristic search, minmax, alpha-beta pruning methods, evolutionary algorithms and swarm intelligent techniques; the authors illustrate the design of knowledge-based systems and advanced expert systems, which incorporate uncertainty and fuzziness. Machine learning algorithms including decision trees and artificial neural networks are presented and finally the fundamentals of hybrid intelligent systems are also depicted. Academics, scientists as well as engineers engaged in research, development and application of computational intelligence techniques, machine learning and data mining would find the comprehensive coverage of this book invaluable.

What do shared service models involve? Which business processes can and/or should be shared? This ASM volume deals with such questions relating to the increasingly popular use of Shared Service Centers in organizations. The volume intends to move beyond debating the relevance of shared services towards more systematic research action.
This textbook focuses on the management challenges of founding a new venture and managing its rapid growth as the firm evolves. It covers crucial management areas in the entrepreneurship context such as entrepreneurial finance, marketing, and human resource management. Also, more hands-on management topics like writing a business plan and choosing a legal form for a venture are covered. A key chapter of the book is dedicated to leadership challenges in managing rapidly growing young firms located in new industries and technology areas. The book is written from a Continental European perspective to cater for its European target audience in entrepreneurship courses to be held in English.
Anthropologists have written a great deal about the coastal adaptations and seafaring traditions of Pacific Islanders, but have had much less to say about the significance of rivers for Pacific island culture, livelihood and identity. The authors of this collection seek to fill that gap in the ethnographic record by drawing attention to the deep historical attachments of island communities to rivers, and the ways in which those attachments are changing in response to various forms of economic development and social change. In addition to making a unique contribution to Pacific island ethnography, the authors of this volume speak to a global set of issues of immense importance to a world in which water scarcity, conflict, pollution and the degradation of riparian environments afflict growing numbers of people. Several authors take a political ecology approach to their topic, but the emphasis here is less on hydro-politics than on the cultural meaning of rivers to the communities we describe. How has the cultural significance of rivers shifted as a result of colonisation, development and nation-building? How do people whose identities are fundamentally rooted in their relationship to a particular river renegotiate that relationship when the river is dammed to generate hydro-power or polluted by mining activities? How do blockages in the flow of rivers and underground springs interrupt the intergenerational transmission of local ecological knowledge and hence the ability of local communities to construct collective identities rooted in a sense of place?
