IPPF (International Professional Practices Framework)

The International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) is a globally recognized set of standards and guidance for internal auditors. It helps ensure that internal auditing activities are performed consistently, ethically, and effectively. The IPPF includes the Core Principles, the Code of Ethics, and the International Standards, which outline best practices for assessing and improving an organization’s risk management, control, and governance processes. Essentially, it provides a professional blueprint for internal auditors to add value, promote transparency, and support organizational success while maintaining high integrity and accountability.
