§ COSO委员会简介

COSO委员会(全美反舞弊性财务报告委员会发起组织,Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission,缩写COSO)

1985年,由美国注册会计师协会(AICPA)、美国会计学会(AAA)、财务经理人协会(FEI)、美国内部审计师协会(国际内部审计师协会的前身,IIA)、美国管理会计师协会(IMA)联合创建了反虚假财务报告委员会(通常称Treadway委员会),旨在探讨财务报告中的舞弊产生的原因,并寻找解决之道。

两年后,基于该委员会的建议,其赞助机构成立COSO(Committee of Sponsoring Organization,COSO)委员会,专门研究内部控制问题。1992年9月,COSO委员会发布《内部控制整合框架》(COSO-IC),简称COSO报告,1994年进行了增补。这些成果马上得到了美国审计署(GAO) 的认可,美国注册会计师协会(AICPA)也全面接受其内容并于1995年发布了《审计准则公告第78号》。由于COSO报告提出的内部控制理论和体系集内部控制理论和实践发展之大成,成为现代内部控制最具有权威性的框架,因此在业内倍受推崇,在美国及全球得到广泛推广和应用。

§ COSO的运行

自1992年美国COSO委员会发布《COSO内部控制整合框架》以来,该框架已在全球获得广泛的认可和应用,但理论界和实务界一直不断对其提出一些改进建议,强调内部控制整合框架的建立应与企业风险管理相结合。 2002年颁布的萨班斯法案也要求上市公司全面关注风险,加强风险管理,在客观上也推动了内部控制整体框架的进一步发展。与此同时,COSO委员会也意识到《内部控制整合框架》自身也存一些问题,如过分注重财务报告,而没有从企业全局与战略的高度来关注企业风险。正是基于这种内部和外部的双重因素,新框架必须出台以适应发展需求。

2003年7月,美国 COSO委员根据萨班斯法案的相关要求,颁布了“企业风险管理整合框架”的讨论稿(Draft),该讨论稿是在《内部控制整合框架》的基础上进行了扩展而得来的,2004年9月正式颁布了《企业风险管理整合框架》(COSO-ERM),标志COSO委员会最新的内部控制研究成果面世。

COSO企业风险管理的定义 :“企业风险管理是一个过程,受企业董事会、管理层和其他员工的影响,包括内部控制及其在战略和整个公司的应用,旨在为实现经营的效率和效果、财务报告的可靠性以及法规的遵循提供合理保证。”COSO-ERM框架是一个指导性的理论框架,为公司的董事会提供了有关企业所面临的重要风险,以及如何进行风险管理方面的重要信息。企业风险管理本身是一个由企业董事会、管理层、和其他员工共同参与的,应用于企业战略制定和企业内部各个层次与部门的,用于识别可能对企业造成潜在影响的事项并在其风险偏好范围内进行多层面,流程化的企业风险管理过程,它为企业目标实现提供合理保证。

在内部控制整合框架五个要素的基础上, COSO企业风险管理的构成要素增加到八个:(1)内部环境;(2)目标设定:(3)事项识别;(4)风险评估;(5)风险应对;(6)控制活动;(7)信息与沟通;(8)监控。八个要素相互关联,贯穿于企业风险管理的过程中。
