• Resource Wastage: Auditing personnel may spend up to 40% more time re-examining failed controls rather than addressing emerging strategic risks.
• Diminished Authority: Consistent reporting of unresolved issues undermines the credibility and influence of the Audit Division among senior management and auditees.
