  3. Application GRC controls reduce… Financial Loss Compliance Cost Audit Effort !

  4. Configuration examples • Financial Loss • Tax mis-configuration causes under-collection of taxes, goes undetected for months. Consequences: Pay taxes on behalf of customers, plus penalties. • Clerk changes bank account info without cross-check, millions transferred before fraud discovered.

Consequences: Customers default on payments, receivables aging forces write-downs.

  5. Configuration examples ! • Compliance Cost • Ledger Set mis-configuration allocates revenues amongst divisions incorrectly. Consequences: Restate and refile quarterly results; public confidence shaken due to notoriety. • Audit Effort • Production patch resets vendor tolerances, goes unnoticed for months. Consequences: Internal audit team spends months proving there were no abuses; external auditors perform substantial transaction examination.
