Advisory for Data & process
Within the Data & process domain, we support you in risk management (both internal and external) in relation to the risks to which your activities are exposed. We focus on analysing and improving business processes from different perspectives. Our collaborative mindset and pragmatic approach are essential in this respect. After all, we are entrepreneurs ourselves and understand that advice should be both practical and tailored to your business.
Our experts’ tasks
Our Data & process Services within Internal Audit help you and your company gain in-depth insights into the design and effectiveness of internal controls when examining business processes.
As a result, you, your partners and managers can have complete faith in your business processes. We also support you with Internal Controls for situations such as an IPO or when there are concerns about the maturity of the internal control environment. We offer tailor-made solutions and focus on solving major risks, while offering control measures that can grow with your business.
Our Data & process Services also extend to Analytics and Data Solutions, where our experts tackle complex problems through data analysis and process mining. We also help you and your company optimise existing processes and automation, regardless of the industry. For compliance, we offer comprehensive support in implementing and monitoring specific legal obligations, including anti-money laundering legislation, Customer Due Diligence, GDPR and more. Finally, within Environmental and Social Governance, we help you and your company identify, measure and support both internal reporting and investment decisions.
Our tools
Within Data & process, we use various tools. For example, we use Python to automate data transformations, to work out specific tests or as an engine for complete data insight solutions such as our fraud dashboard. We also use Power BI/ Powerquery/Powerapp. This tool enables the visualisation and analysis of data of a limited size.
At Finvision, we also use various audit documentation tools. Depending on your choice, we document our internal audits in various tools, from simple Excels to semi-automated systems such as Galvanize. For structured data, we mainly use SQL as an ETL (Extract Transform Load) language in preparation for next steps. We also have a great deal of internal audit know-how. So, we can hit the ground running.
