Why audit
The audit function is important, useful, and most of all, mandatory for financial institutions. It is becoming more complex due to more complex IT systems and regulations. Therefore, the audit function is broad and specialized, which makes it difficult for smaller parties to fulfill the audit internally.

Three lines of defence – 3LoD
The three lines of defence model is a governance model that assumes that an organization has three lines of defence (3LoD) in managing risks. The three components together must ensure that all risks are identified and adequately controlled
Vision
- Three lines together must guarantee sufficient control. Thick first line, slightly thinner second line, and vice versa. Strong second line, thinner third line, and vice versa.
- We strive for maximum improvement in control. Not for ‘just sufficient’.
- The MS Audit approach must be appropriate for the pension fund. We have experience with very large and very small financial institutions.

- Risk-weighted audit planning;
- Pragmatic and expert approach;
