my wife is a certifien internal auditors working as internal auditor operations manager in a bank, she is not a financial auditor.
can we applied?
Hello jimmy80, If i can understand u well, your wife is a certified internal auditor, which might implies from the word 'certified' that she has earned her CFE designation (certified fraud Examiner) and not ICAN's ACA which is quite popular with auditor's in naija. my take take is that she can apply with or without ICAN or CFE in as much as her job description that is duly signed and stamped by her coy and supervisors is tailored along this suggested lines( just a suggestion and it is not exhaustive):
Her main responsibilities include but not limited to the following:
o Review of Head Office Operation Departments (Funds Transfer Unit, Cash &Teller, Customer Service Unit, Forex /Correspondent Banking, Treasury Operations/Treasury, Trade Services Department;
o Monthly Comprehensive Cash count exercise (Naira & Foreign Currencies);
o Review outstanding balances in NOSTRO (External account with Off shore Bank) and VOSTRO (internal replica of the off shore Account) accounts that are Usance related and obtain explanation from FX Department;
o Ensure the integrity of balances in the general ledger accounts such as Transit and Suspense accounts and other remittances accounts
o Implementation/monitoring of the various Anti money laundering/counter terrorist finance strategies and policies of the bank;
o Monitoring and reviewing suspicious transactions by ensuring that reports are rendered timely to the regulatory authorities like Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) etc.
o Being the Chief facilitator in Quarterly trainings to staff on Anti money laundering Issues, fraud and policy awareness workshops.
o Preparation of evidence for presentation in court.
o Preparing written reports of investigation findings
o Reviewing reports of suspected fraud to determine need for further investigation.
o Advising the Bank's client on ways to improve fraud detection and control.
o Process review-review of existing bank business processes, vis-a vis cash handling procedure, clearing process, account opening process, Know your customer (KYC) policies etc.
o Supervision- Supervision and monitoring of audit trainees (new staff of the Department).
