With today’s current business environment being highly automated and global in nature, remote workforces are common and businesses face expectations for greater transparency. 

The Committee of the Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) released its updated Integrated-Internal Control Framework in May 2013 that acknowledges those changes and retains the principles-based internal components found in the 1992 COSO Internal Control Framework. That enables organizations to more-effectively address internal control concerns and serves as an enhancement of the 1992 COSO Integrated-Internal Control Framework. For companies that must comply with Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations, it was recommended to be implemented by December 15, 2014. The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) suggested prompt implementation of the 2013 framework as well. Regardless of the particular compliance requirements an organization faces, residual value accompanies implementing the 2013 framework as soon as possible.
