Meet Reenu Reji, Risk Advisory Manager at Deloitte Bermuda. Her expertise lies mainly with SOX Internal Audit (IA) programs and accounting advisory services such as PGAAP accounting. Reenu specializes mainly in developing a risk-based audit plan for assessing a client’s control environment. As part of this, she helps define audit scope, objectives, and audit approach - from planning to execution of audit engagements which includes communicating audit results to management.

The clients Reenu works with often face issues when dealing with change. It can be a change in personnel, a new system, a merger or acquisition, implementing new accounting standards, ensuring compliance with new regulations, etc. Furthermore, the need for an IA function is ever more important as the needs of the clients along with their stakeholders are evolving in this fast-paced world. One of her core responsibility as a Risk Advisory Manager is to help clients with the changing regulatory environment.

Most times the organization lacks internal staffing or subject matter resources to address high-risk or emerging areas that require specialized knowledge. This is where Reenu steps in to help fill that gap with the industry-leading solutions. As an outsourced or co-sourced service provider, the Deloitte team provides full IA services that can offer industry-leading quality, flexibility, efficiency, and effectiveness at a greater value than an existing in-house function.

With the support of her team, she helps Internal Audit functions adapt, transform and embrace new ways of working and digitize their practices to future-proof their functions along with their organization. This also includes the development and execution of agile internal audit plans to cater to the clients’ needs.

Reenu further provides value to clients by understanding various regulatory requirements and making sure clients are in compliance with the same. Reenu and her team often involve subject matter experts if they are dealing with an emerging risk area, to cater to the various needs of clients in various industries. Deloitte’s advisory teams have access to the latest guidance and materials to prepare them to encounter and navigate emerging challenges in the financials services industry. This helps clients build on existing strengths and improve the overall value of their IA function.

Join Reenu in leading the way in internal audit advisory.
