The Auditor General of SAI Denmark (Rigsrevisionen), Ms. Lone Strøm, introduces the presentation on the 5th provision of the Moscow Declaration “SAIs could aim to make better use of data analytics in audits, including adaptation strategies, such as planning for such audits, developing experienced teams for data analytics, and introducing new techniques into the practice of public audit”.
Ms. Strøm highlights the fact that her organization has had a head start in implementing various digital tools in its auditing due to the diffusion of e-government in Denmark. The introduction is followed by various examples of the implementation of data analytics in both financial audit and major studies, and a brief description of a data analytics center of excellence that was established at the SAI Denmark in April 2019.
