Abstract:
In today's dynamic and technology-driven business environment, information systems have
become integral to the operations of city councils, impacting their financial performance. This
study examines the effectiveness of information system auditing as a crucial component in
safeguarding the reliability, security, and efficiency of these systems, and its subsequent
influence on the financial performance of city councils.
The research employs both quantitative and qualitative methods approach involving quantitative
financial data analysis with structured questionnaires. Financial performance indicators, such
as revenue, cost management, and profit will be analyzed over a specific timeframe to assess
the correlation between effective information system auditing and financial outcomes.
Furthermore, the analysis from structured questionnaires will highlight the impact, factors, and
challenges faced by city councils in implementing effective information system auditing. These
challenges encompass resource constraints, evolving technological landscapes, and the need
for a skilled and specialized workforce. The study underscores the importance of proactive and
comprehensive auditing approaches that align with the council's overall risk management
strategy and regulatory requirements.
This research underscores the critical role of information system auditing in shaping the financial
performance of city councils. As technology continues to advance and the financial industry
becomes increasingly digitized, the findings will emphasize the need for continuous investment
in information system auditing practices to maintain competitiveness, ensure regulatory
compliance, and bolster financial resilience in an ever-changing landscape.
