It is also responsible for specialised operational risk management processes, such as business continuity management.

    Forensic Services

    This division consists of two teams:

    Internal Auditing Team

    The role of the Internal Audit Team is to provide independent assurance that the organisation’s risk management, governance and internal control processes are operating effectively.

    This division has three main functions: Legal, Statutory Compliance and Company Secretarial and Governance.

    Legal

    This team provides advice to the business on legal matters, while providing contractual review with detailed scrutiny of all contracts within the business. Any contentious issues are communicated to the relevant department for negotiation with the contractor.
