Internal Audit for Pension Schemes

The new IORP II (Institutions for Occupational Retirement Provision) Directive requires certain pension schemes to implement a dedicated independent internal audit function that reports to the trustees. At EisnerAmperwe deliver specialist Internal Audit Services to help ensure Irish Pension Schemes meet the requirements needed in an efficient and compliant manner. 

Our Internal Audit team provides reporting to Trustees that key business risks have been identified and that effective controls are in place to manage these risks.
