Barclays Internal Audit (BIA) plays a key role in our business worldwide. By checking and making sure our governance, controls, and risk management processes are working properly, we help protect Barclays from all sorts of risks both the ones we face now and those that might arise in the future.

We're an independent control function that provides objective, reliable, and insightful assurance to the Board and Executive Management. Known as the 'third line of defence', we work closely with the business to help improve risk management. We do this by regularly visiting different areas of the Group, checking how processes are carried out to minimise unnecessary risk. We then report our findings, offer advice on how to make positive changes, and keep an eye on progress to make sure issues get resolved quickly and effectively.
