Reed Elsevier is a global publisher of information and solutions for professional users in three core markets – science and medical, legal and business. In this profile, Arnout van de Veer, director of corporate audit services, describes the internal audit team’s two primary roles: ensuring a consistent and effective approach to global risk management and executing an audit or assurance plan. According to van de Veer, the two roles are intrinsically related as the team must provide assurance to the board of directors that from a risk and control point of view, the company is well-managed.
