In this episode, we discuss why it is important to focus on our audit objective when using data analysis in our audit.

We explore:

Why a focus on the objective helps us measure success
Why we should avoid rules based analysis
How a focus on the objective helps us stay true to our audit mandate
Cost benefit analysis when we find things that are not related to the audit
Why a focus on the objective helps us in reporting on data quality or missing data

This is explored in more depth in our book, here: https://riskinsights.com.au/the-data-confident-internal-auditor
