The\u00a0European Confederation of Institutes of Internal Auditing (ECIIA)<\/strong>\u00a0represents the internal audit profession at European level.<\/p>\nWe bring together\u00a035 National Institutes<\/strong>\u00a0and represent more than\u00a055,000 internal auditors across Europe<\/strong>, acting as the\u00a0single, consolidated voice of the profession<\/strong>\u00a0towards European institutions, regulators and key stakeholders.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top_multiplier=”custom” padding_bottom_multiplier=”custom” rc_bg_type=”color” rc_bg_color=”#ffffff” rc_font_color=”#ffffff” padding_top=”70px” padding_bottom=”100px”][vc_column width=”1\/3″ rc_font_color=”#1d335d”][vc_custom_heading text=”What we do” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%231d335d” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″ rc_font_color=”#1d335d”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\nAdvocate, connect and strengthen internal audit in Europe<\/h4>\n
The ECIIA exists to\u00a0promote strong corporate governance and effective internal audit across Europe<\/strong>, by working at the intersection of the profession, regulators and policy-makers.<\/p>\nOur role is threefold:<\/p>\n
1. Advocate for the profession at European level<\/h5>\n
We actively engage with:<\/p>\n
\n- European institutions, including the\u00a0European Commission<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0European Parliament<\/strong><\/li>\n
- European supervisory and regulatory authorities such as the\u00a0EBA<\/strong>,\u00a0ECB<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0EIOPA<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Other European and international stakeholders involved in corporate governance such as the OECD.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Through advocacy, public affairs and technical dialogue, we promote the\u00a0recognition, independence and value of internal audit<\/strong> within European regulations, supervisory frameworks and governance codes.<\/p>\n2. Support and coordinate National Institutes<\/h5>\n
We support our National Institutes by:<\/p>\n
\n- Coordinating common European positions<\/li>\n
- Sharing expertise, insights and best practices<\/li>\n
- Supporting advocacy efforts at national and European levels<\/li>\n
- Facilitating collaboration across countries, sectors and industries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This collective approach strengthens the profession and ensures consistent, high-quality representation across Europe.<\/p>\n
3. Create platforms for dialogue and expertise<\/h5>\n
The ECIIA delivers concrete value to the profession through:<\/p>\n
\n- Webinars, conferences and European forums<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Position papers and responses to public consultations<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Surveys, research and professional insights<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Working groups and task forces<\/strong>\u00a0on key topics, including banking, insurance, public sector and corporate governance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
