According to IIA guidance, an appropriate role for the internal audit activity includes coaching management in responding to risks. This involves providing advice, facilitating workshops, and sharing best practices to help management identify, assess, and mitigate risks effectively. Internal auditors can offer insights and recommendations based on their evaluations but should not take on management responsibilities.

Implementing risk responses on management ' s behalf (B), imposing risk management processes (C), and setting the risk appetite (D) are not appropriate roles for internal auditors, as these activities fall within the purview of management. The internal audit function should maintain its independence and objectivity while supporting and enhancing the organization ' s risk management efforts.
