Given the speed of technological change and globalization of markets, the internal audit function needs to evolve to help the organization understand and manage the associated risks, achieve the expected results from automation, and continue to innovate to achieve added value.

In this paper we want to emphasize that a good mastery of computer techniques and innovations, as well as a permanent updating of the changes brought by the regulations in the field, can only bring a higher quality of the services offered by the internal audit, by well fundamental opinions and solid proposals. Thus, the pursuit of this profession would not be possible without the existence of the benchmarks represented by norms, directives, policies and standards, all together making up the complete set of tools with which a true auditor will begin the journey on the missions successfully and operationally accomplished. The main objective of this article is to make a short incursion of the concept and importance of internal auditing and reviewing the requirements of the new EN ISO 19011: 2018 standard. | | Keywords: Internal Audit; Challenges; Digital Revolution; New Skills; ISO 19011: 2018. |

Download | | Author(s): Anamaria - Geanina Macovei | | DOI: 10.4316/EJAFB.2019.739 | | Abstract: In this paper, is analyzed the influence of the import of goods and services on the gross domestic product for the period 1995-2018. The analyzed period of 24 years contains a critical period for the Romanian economy, in which the global economic crisis and the financial recession were felt. For analysis, the quadratic model is proposed, where a maximum point is obtained for the value of the import of goods and services and of the gross domestic product. So according to the model, if Romania's government policy is to increase the IMP then the GDP will decrease. Under these conditions, policies to promote imports as a strategy for developing a sustainable economy should be finished and the national economy, as well as exports, should be promoted and supported. | | Keywords: Import, Gross Domestic Product, Cubic Quadratic. |
