Description of Control Self Assessment

Control self assessment is currently one of the most topical and controversial audit and management issues. Control self assessment is a technique that helps managers and staff systematically assess the controls within their areas of responsibility to determine how successfully they contribute to the achievement of business objectives as well as how well they guard against operational risks. This management technique plays a significant role and has been implemented in many organisations; others are looking for practical guidance on its form, application and operation.
