CIIA(公認内部監査人協会)、英企業の内部監査責任者を対象にしたEU(欧州連合)離脱への準備状況に関する調査報告書を公表、大部分の企業が規制や人材採用等で影響ありと回答


Default: Change to:


With the UK committed to leaving the EU in March 2019, organisations need to ensure they understand how their business will be impacted and put plans in place to manage or mitigate this where necessary. The Chartered IIA has attempted to provide an overview of organisations’ preparedness for Brexit.


The Chartered IIA has attempted to provide an overview of organisations’ preparedness for Brexit, the practicalities of undertaking scenario planning , the key risks associated with Brexit, sharing lessons learnt, and the role of internal audit in assisting the organisation to prepare for this potentially disruptive event.

The report itself is based on a survey of Chief Audit Executives across the UK to understand their responses and preparedness for Brexit, along with six in-depth case studies to share best practice. In total almost 100 Chief Audit Executives participated in the research.

Key findings from the survey

  1. A vast majority (82%) of the organisations surveyed are affected by the risks associated with Brexit.
  2. The top three risk areas affected by Brexit are: regulatory change (69%), recruitment of skilled and unskilled labour (61%), and supply chain management (57%).
  3. More than half (53%) of organisations have undertaken scenario planning, which has included assessing the issues that will impact their organisation the most. These included regulatory change (56%), access to skilled and unskilled labour (52%), and volatility on the currency markets (46%).
  4. The main difficulties cited by organisations undertaking scenario planning are lack of clarity from government on its preferred Brexit deal (79%), the number of potential scenarios (68%), and the lack of information available (55%).
  5. Three quarters (75%) of the surveyed organisations have established an internal Brexit steering or working group to coordinate the potential impact of Brexit and the response the organisation is taking; in almost half (47%) of the steering groups, internal audit has a seat at the table.
  6. Almost half (40%) of the surveyed organisations say they have not received an appropriate level of engagement and information from government in preparing for Brexit.
