According to IIA guidance, the chief audit executive (CAE) is responsible for establishing policies and procedures for the internal audit activity, including the retention of audit records. These requirements should be aligned with the organization’s overall processes and procedures to ensure consistency and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. This approach ensures that the retention policy is tailored to the specific needs and context of the organization, while also maintaining alignment with broader organizational policies.
