Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organisation’s operations. It helps an organisation accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes.

The Office of the Auditor General (OAG), Asian Development Bank‘s (ADB) internal audit function provides independent and objective audit and advisory services designed to add value and improve ADB operations. OAG provides assurance to the President and the Audit Committee of the Board that ADB‘s financial and operational controls designed to manage risks and achieve ADB‘s development objectives are operating in an efficient and effective manner. OAG assists Management and the ACB by bringing a systematic and disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes in ADB.
