<strong>in</strong>troduction <strong>of</strong> the model, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g an explanation <strong>of</strong> all the different levels. Based on this model/<br />

template you will be able to assess the level <strong>of</strong> maturity <strong>of</strong> the <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> audit function <strong>in</strong> your organization.<br />

The next step is to determ<strong>in</strong>e what needs to be done to go to a higher level <strong>of</strong> maturity for the<br />

<strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> audit function <strong>in</strong> their organizations. This IA-CM is tailored to the public sector, but most <strong>of</strong> it<br />

is applicable to the private sector also.<br />

provide capital preservation obligation. For this purpose f<strong>in</strong>ancial statements should show the<br />

"ICT Security Audit accord<strong>in</strong>g ISO 27001 and 27002 "<br />

In all modern companies that rely on <strong>in</strong>formation system <strong>in</strong> ther operations, there is a need for<br />

for <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> audit <strong>of</strong> IT system safety. The whole audit<strong>in</strong>g process as well as IT security audit<strong>in</strong>g<br />

depends on the concept <strong>of</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> controls <strong>in</strong> all parts <strong>of</strong> bus<strong>in</strong>ess. Top management must be<br />

assured that the company IT systems operates <strong>in</strong> a controlled environment and that the adequate<br />

controls are <strong>in</strong> place. Exactly <strong>of</strong> that the clear vision <strong>of</strong> the future <strong>of</strong> provid<strong>in</strong>g IT security audits<br />

can be perceived, as well as the future development <strong>of</strong> IT audit pr<strong>of</strong>ession.<br />

"Code <strong>of</strong> ethics, comunication <strong>in</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> audit"<br />

An effective Internal Audit function has to f<strong>in</strong>d the balance between risk, cost and value. Not<br />

hav<strong>in</strong>g that balance results <strong>in</strong> sub-optimization creates a value gap. Issues could lie <strong>in</strong> the areas<br />

<strong>of</strong> enablement or competency, or both. From an enablement perspective, Internal Audit may<br />

not be aligned with the bus<strong>in</strong>ess risks, may be us<strong>in</strong>g out-<strong>of</strong>-date technology or may not know<br />

how to prioritize effectively. In terms <strong>of</strong> capabilities, the Internal Audit function may not have<br />

the <strong>in</strong>dustry <strong>in</strong>sight and functional <strong>in</strong>sight it needs. It may have <strong>in</strong>flexible staff<strong>in</strong>g models. Or it<br />

may lack skills <strong>in</strong> specific areas, such as tax or IT. Both types <strong>of</strong> gaps can limit Internal Audit’s<br />

ability to operate at higher levels. Identify<strong>in</strong>g these challenges — and establish<strong>in</strong>g solutions to<br />

address them — will form the foundation <strong>of</strong> the bus<strong>in</strong>ess case for change.<br />

"Contol <strong>of</strong> public f<strong>in</strong>ances"<br />

Studies on issues <strong>of</strong> public f<strong>in</strong>ances’ controls on <strong>in</strong>ternational level, and especially <strong>in</strong> Serbia, are<br />

covered <strong>in</strong> this paper. By analyz<strong>in</strong>g world trends <strong>in</strong> the sphere <strong>of</strong> public assets’ control, it can be<br />

concluded that currently there is almost no county without some k<strong>in</strong>d <strong>of</strong> state control over<br />

public f<strong>in</strong>ances. In most <strong>of</strong> the countries, supervision over public assets is under direct or<br />

<strong>in</strong>direct supervision <strong>of</strong> the Parliament. Parliament, as the highest Regulatory body approv<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

level <strong>of</strong> public assets (<strong>in</strong>comes and expenses) is controll<strong>in</strong>g annual f<strong>in</strong>ancial reports as well as<br />

the efficiency <strong>of</strong> national asset consumption. Studies <strong>of</strong> this subject on <strong>in</strong>ternational level are<br />

show<strong>in</strong>g that each country with<strong>in</strong> their own scope <strong>of</strong> controls is giv<strong>in</strong>g special contribution on<br />

establishment <strong>of</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> control system. In western developed countries, this <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong><br />

pr<strong>of</strong>essional control mechanism over the public asset is done by the <strong><strong>in</strong>ternal</strong> control. In order to<br />

put <strong>in</strong> place this control, most <strong>of</strong> the parliaments abroad have brought laws on public assets’<br />

audit, which is therefore becom<strong>in</strong>g pr<strong>of</strong>essional control function.<br />

Jednom dođoh da upoznam Sarajevo grad.<br />

Tada bejah momak nezenjen i mlad.<br />

Mislio sam da ostanem samo dan il' dva.<br />

Al' mi prodje u Sarajevu mladost moja sva.<br />

Ko se jednom napije, vode sa Bascarsije,<br />

Nikad vise iz Sarajeva taj otici ne umije.<br />

Zedz ljubav i srecu nadje u seheru tom.<br />

Zaljubih se zaigra mi srce snagom svom.<br />

Sarajka mi ponudila izvor vode skut.<br />

Zaboravih gdje sam poso', kud me vodi put..<br />
