✦ Synopsis

This paper presents the results of a survey‐based study into the role played by internal auditors in Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestitures (M, A & D). The research, funded by the IIA‐ Research Foundation, was carried out during the years 2000 and 2001 and involved interviews in 22 organisations spanning 6 countries. The findings indicate that internal auditor's involvement in M, A and D can only be described as moderate. However, the study also shows that internal auditors see themselves capable of playing a larger role, a view supported by senior executives in other functions in these organisations. The study sets out the pre‐requisites for internal auditors expanded role and discusses the means of achieving this.
