5 Authority .02 The mission and charter authorize and guide the UC Internal Audit Program in carrying out its independent appraisal function. ORGANIZATION .03 It is the policy of The UC Board of Regents to establish and maintain an Internal Audit Program as a staff and independent appraisal function. Internal Audit is a management control that functions by assessing the effectiveness of other managerial controls. Internal Audit examines and evaluates University business and administrative activities in order to assist all levels of management and members of The Board of Regents in the effective discharge of their responsibilities and furnishes them with analyses, recommendations, counsel and information concerning the activities and records reviewed.

6 Internal Audit is headed by the SVP/Chief compliance and Audit Officer (SVP/CCAO) and is a component of the Office of the Regents. The SVP/CCAO is appointed by the Regents and the President. The SVP/CCAO prepares, for approval by the President and The Board of Regents compliance and Audit Committee, a UC Internal Audit Annual Plan that defines the Audit Program to be conducted for the University during the year. Professional Standards .04 The University of California Internal Audit Program complies with the Institute of Internal Auditor s (IIA) International Professional Practices Framework, which includes the Core Principles for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing, the Definition of Internal Auditing, the Code of Ethics and the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing (Standards), as well as University policies and UC Standards for Ethical Conduct.

7 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA INTERNAL AUDIT MANUAL University of California 6/14/2018 Page 6 1100 Internal Audit Charter Policy Statement .01 It is the policy of the University of California to maintain an independent and objective internal audit function to provide the Regents, President, and campus Chancellors with information and assurance on the governance, risk management and internal control processes of the University. Further, it is the policy of the University to provide the resources necessary to enable Internal Audit to achieve its mission and discharge its responsibilities under its Charter. Internal Audit is established by the Regents, and its responsibilities are defined by The Regents' Committee on compliance and Audit as part of their oversight function.

8 Vision .02 UC Internal Audit will be a universally recognized knowledgeable, collaborative and trusted resource on governance, risk management and control. Mission Statement .03 The mission of the University of California (UC) internal audit program (IA) is to provide the Regents, President, and campus Chancellors, and Laboratory Director independent and objective assurance and consulting services designed to add value and to improve operations. We do this through communication, monitoring and collaboration with management to assist the campus community in the discharge of their oversight, management, and operating responsibilities. Internal audit brings a systematic and disciplined approach to evaluating and improving the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes.

9 Authority .04 IA functions under the policies established by the Regents of the University of California and by University management under delegated authority. IA is authorized to have full, free and unrestricted access to information including records, computer files, property, and personnel of the University in accordance with the authority granted by approval of this charter and applicable federal and state statutes. Except where limited by law, the work of IA is unrestricted. IA is free to review and evaluate all policies, procedures, and practices for any University activity, program, or function. In performing the audit function, IA has no direct responsibility for, nor authority over any of the activities reviewed.

10 The internal audit review and approval process does not in any way relieve other persons in the ORGANIZATION of the responsibilities assigned to them. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA INTERNAL AUDIT MANUAL University of California 6/14/2018 Page 7 1100 Internal Audit Charter Independence and Reporting Structure .05 To permit the rendering of impartial and unbiased judgment essential to the proper conduct of audits, internal auditors will be independent of the activities they audit. This independence is based primarily upon organizational status and objectivity and is required by external industry standards. The Senior Vice President (SVP) - Chief compliance and Audit Officer (SVP/CCAO) has a direct, independent reporting relationship to the Regents, communicating directly with the Board of Regents and the Regents Committee on compliance and Audit regarding all elements of meaningful compliance and audit programs, including providing annual reports on compliance with applicable laws, regulations and University policy.
