  3. Internal Audit Plan - Overview • The audit plan was developed using a risk based audit approach. Utilizing experience and understanding of the bank’s operations as well as industry knowledge, internal audit identified auditable areas, performed a risk assessment for each of these areas, and assigned each of these a risk rating of high, medium or low. • Internal Audit considered the following factors, as well as knowledge of the Bank, in determining the risk rating for each auditable area: • Discussions with Bank Management which provided insight regarding issues and risks in the auditable areas • Potential impact that the auditable area may have on the financial position of the Bank • Other environmental factors, such as past audit results, changes in personnel and operations, past and current emphasis by regulators, and future business strategies • This risk assessment process will be performed on an ongoing (at least annually) basis to ensure changing risk factors, including losses, operational changes or turnover are continually monitored. • A cycling approach to the internal audit plan was used, whereby high risk areas are audited on an annual basis, and medium to low risk areas are audited over a 18 to 24 month cycle.
