The banking and financial services sector is at the forefront of digitalisation and innovative solutions and are revolutionising the way the sector operates to deliver quality services to its customers. Though fintech solutions open doors to opportunities, it also brings about increased governance, risks and internal controls challenges to the banks, the regulatory bodies and more importantly to the internal auditors who need to understand the disruptive changes in the banking and financial services businesses well in order to provide greater assurance to stakeholders in the digitalisation journey. Against this landscape, The Institute of Internal Auditors Singapore has chosen the theme “Pushing the Internal Audit Boundaries” for its inaugural Banking Sector Internal Audit Conference 2019 with Singapore Accountancy Commission as our supporting organisation. With the transformation that is taking place in a VUCA environment, the role of internal audit has never been of greater importance, and at the same time, has never faced greater challenges. Internal auditors need to be agile and respond in a fast-changing environment by not only ensuring proper governance and risk management but also adding value in an organisation’s success. With a line-up of renowned local and global speakers from the banking and financial services industry, this conference provides delegates with a timely opportunity to discuss real world examples of current challenges facing the banking and financial services sector and to hear the views (including practical tips and solutions for managing and mitigating these challenges), network and interact with these industry experts.
