After the great success of our recent Brighton Conference, our third meeting of 2026 sees a return to our half day seminar programme, hosted at the Deloitte offices in New Street Square.
Book now to meet and network with colleagues and industry peers, and hear presentations from:
Deloitte's Insurance Internal Audit and Technology Assurance specialists - Key Planning Priorities for 2027
- Farsha Amran, Associate Director, Deloitte
- Will Macdonald, Associate Director, Deloitte
- Mark Westbrook, Director - IT Internal Audit, Deloitte
Deloitte's Internal Audit Planning Priorities is a well-established and highly anticipated annual publication.
This session will explore the emerging risks, market developments and regulatory expectations shaping Internal Audit agendas, providing practical insights into assurance priorities for the year ahead, as well as broader perspectives on Internal Audit functions and evolving ways of working.
Artificial Intelligence in Insurance – the Good, the Bad, the Ugly (an implementation journey)
- Tom Anstell, Internal Audit Manager, Bupa
- Polly Smith, Head of Internal Audit -Group and Global Functions, Bupa
- Emily Betteridge, Senior Manager, BDO
AI continues to generate significant interest across Internal Audit, but successful adoption requires more than simply implementing new technology. In this session, BDO and Bupa will explore how data, analytics and AI work together to enhance assurance.
Attendees will hear practical examples of where AI can add value across the audit lifecycle and the risks and governance considerations organisations need to address.
The session will demonstrate how leading Internal Audit functions are combining continuous assurance, advanced analytics and AI-enabled capabilities to deliver more effective, efficient and insightful assurance outcomes.
Behavioural Risk in Practice: A Practical Framework for Internal Audit
- Roza Watson, Head of Internal Audit, MS Amlin
Behavioural risk is increasingly recognised as a key contributor to organisational failures, yet many Internal Audit functions struggle to move beyond theory and apply it in a practical, repeatable way.
This session explores how we, as an Audit Function, have embedded behavioural risk into our audit methodology through a structured framework that enables auditors to identify and record behavioural risk drivers alongside traditional control assessments.
Attendees will gain insight into how behavioural observations, adverse outcomes and control failures can be systematically captured through day-to-day audit activities, helping Internal Audit provide more forward-looking insight and identify emerging risks before they crystallise into material issues.
