Conducted risk assessments using data analytics to identify patterns that may indicate fraudulent activities; performed predictive analytics for risk-based audits, prioritizing areas with high inherent risks and allocating resources there. Also, used qualitative methods to identify risks by reviewing the financial statements and understanding the business environment. Developed audit plans outlining objectives, scope, timeline, and key stakeholders. Gathered evidence through document review and interview and prepared audit reports detailing findings, recommendations for improvement and follow-up action plans. Conducted follow-up audits by first reviewing the prior audit findings and agreed upon action plan. Then, verified the implementation of these actions through document reviews and interviews to validate compliance and identify any areas for further improvement. This approach has consistently led to enhanced operational efficiency and risk mitigation in my practice. Audited internal controls, understanding the business operations, objectives and risks associated with each process. Focused on the financial reporting controls to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulations, operational controls for efficiency and effectiveness of business processes and IT controls to protect data integrity and security. Performed controls walk-throughs to assess design adequacy.
